The cathedral example in “No chaos. Only ascension.” makes a distinction I keep coming back to: a clear vision is not the same as a plan for building it.
Ambitious work needs room for both—the larger purpose and the discipline to account for costs and inconvenient facts. That distinction is useful when evaluating a project: explaining what it could become does not yet show what it will take to make it real.
