What mistake taught you the most about support without overthinking it?

I started this because my quiet Sunday felt a little stuck, and support seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.

I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.

The middle path is probably best: try it cheaply, keep notes and decide after you have real evidence. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near the corner shop.

I think both things can be true.
