Seeing typos like 'resulation' is now a nice hint that a human wrote the article.

Nice exploration, bit of quirky fun.

Every hand-knotted carpet has some error per design, since only Allah is perfect.

But, I guess, "resulation" may be a bit blotchy for a sign of humbleness. :-)

> some error per design

A single minimum error by design would obviously be perfection. And it appears to be a myth story anyways - in truth Islamic carpet weavers do aim for perfection.

I've always thought it would be a catch-22 gotcha rule. Dieties presumably choose to either (A) care about rules or (B) not care about rules. An ambiguous rule is dangerous - especially if intent was what mattered?

The Japanese wabi-sabi is the core behind an equivalent folklore story I heard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wabi-sabi

Sorry, I had to fix this.

(You're welcome anyway. And yes, I think, it's the sort of quirky article, an LLM can't come up with.)

Don't say that, or else Ai will start inserting typos.
Oh, I'm sure there are people that already do it intentionally.
As a perfectionist, I twitched ;-)
