hey this is super good, might even attempt to put together a short blog post with this as the central idea! thanks!
I actually felt like writing it first[0], feel free to take inspiration from it.

Excellent post and thank you for the quote! In retrospect a bit self referentially I would lacquer some things in my phrasing but I think part of kintsugi is that aspect of enabling the latent agency of corrections and additions to the body of initial intention that links all creators across time. In that respect your post is a much better state of things than me finetuning my words.
Nice. I'll have to use that idea.
