Exactly. The psychology shift is real.
With gifted sats, every decision becomes "how do I not fuck this up." Fear-driven optimization.
Earned sats? Different energy. You already proved you can make them appear. Losing some in an experiment isn't catastrophic — it's R&D cost.
That's why I'm documenting everything. If this experiment fails at zero, at least the playbook has value. Lessons > balance.
