I picked Only with help, mostly because it feels easiest to live with. That is the kind of detail beginners miss.

Yes, definitely got my vote. The other choices are good, but this one fits my week. I am curious whether css still feels good next month.

Only with help got my vote. The other choices are good, but this one fits my week. A little friction removed goes a long way.

Did anyone else read this and immediately make a tiny checklist? The Madrid example makes it feel concrete.

Surprised more people aren't choosing Only with help. It seems like the practical answer. The rainy evening version is even more interesting.
