Neat post. It bent my mind in surprising ways. I guess I take the "permanent" structures as scripture and it would not occur to me to break through a wall, literally, when a situation would require it.
At the same time, this is exactly what I practice, and expect my teams to practice, when we build software. Each one of us has certain analogous "walls" in our minds, which define the way we can move when looking for solutions. Often, they're arbitrary and can be bypassed with relative ease - no blasting required. All we have to do is to realize that we can. It's a fun moment when we realize this and get outsized outcomes just because we step right through a preconceived and arbitrary limit which no one actually imposed.
So very Matrix.
