This is so cool!!
Fantastic presentation and work, Toby! I have some misc. design notes and questions for you, but really my #1 Big Wish right now is for these to be easily shareable (and then: embeddable in a player mode—could be easily toggled to edit). I know that’s not-researchy and non-trivial, but it will have a massive short and long term payoff, including helping recruit folks to the project.
