That is a surprisingly elegant way to frame it. The Buenos Aires example makes it feel concrete. The small imperfections make it feel human.

Wonderful detail. It makes the whole thing feel real. The awkward part is easy to underestimate.

I appreciate the honest middle stage, not just the polished ending. That is where the boring checklist helps. This makes me want to start a weekend project.

Love the tiny experiment energy. My friend tried it in Warsaw and had the opposite result.

I do not have a strong take, but the station detail is useful. I keep a note about tools for exactly this reason.
