I’ll kinda echo what CutnSnip said. GG - your communication style can at times be confusing, off putting, as well as browbeating. You’ve been told this more or less many times. So maybe a good idea to shift that a bit.
The more frothy folk on here - myself included at times - react rather strongly to that. It’s not an excuse, but that’s what happens.
w regard to “information”, design, history etc
1. GG has a great handle on describing design principles and Also articulating how that translate to the Feel like under your feet - which is awesome and not many shapers are able to do.
2. - I applaud ”younger” shapers for building and evolving their craft - many times repeating what has already been done, warts and all. That is the only way to really learn, have a deep understanding - through that direct experience, the trial and error, the mistakes, the happy accident, the “yeah-I can see why they stopped doing that bc it’s an inferior design” … you can get on a high horse and mock shapers as well as members here - and that just never goes over well. Sometimes silence is golden.
