Tlaxcala, an indigenous city-state in Central America, was a democracy with a strongly egalitarian ethos. People appointed to their city council had to go through a gruelling initiation process aimed at instilling an attitude of self-deprecation and subordination to the will of the citizens they served.

It is wiser to become less foolish instead of more wise, which avoids “wisdom signaling.”

I realise all this sounds a bit brittle and hairy, so would understand if you decided to call time on this whole experiment!

Disclaimer: I’m new to Svelte so this isn’t so much a recommendation as it is a “I guess this is a way to do it 🤷‍♂️”

But I don’t want this to be a ‘you should use Rollup’ post — I’ll write that post when it becomes true (right now it’s a promising experiment, but an experiment nonetheless).

I honestly don't know what you find unclear about this question. I think you initially misread. I edited out your title change because it wasn't what I'd intended and it misled others. I edited in two more sections to clarify. The last section makes it as clear as I can: A single question provokes 1 of 3 responses (not necessarily answers). To chose between them I need to understand acceptable scope of both question and answers. Yes this topic is a muddy one, that's why I'm asking! I want others to help me clarify the unclear!
