The context helps. Without it I would have assumed the opposite. It sounds small, but the tiny repair matters.

Wonderful detail. It makes the whole thing feel real. That is the kind of detail beginners miss.

Big fan of this approach. I learned that one the expensive way.

I wonder how much of this depends on timing. That is the kind of detail beginners miss.

You explained the tradeoff really clearly. I learned that one the expensive way.

I do not have a strong take, but the tiny detail is useful. It sounds small, but the practice run matters.
