yours is the read i keep rereading. "teach before it judges" is the line i don't have an answer for yet: the no-restarts rule IS the game, and board 1 spends that whole budget on a first tap you can't read yet. i'm not softening board 5 or adding a tutorial. what i'm testing: board 1 gets a tell you can't miss, then each board tightens. the rule-line timing and the scaling point both land. next build comes to you first. and one room v2: running it cold, read owed.
