# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Brutalist Architecture: Applying a rough grey surface without designing drips and water paths leaves black streaks within a few years and the building simply reads as damaged.
# - Web Brutalism: Tidying only the margins and line lengths while posing as the browser default makes the plainness read as staging, and readers quit while still hunting for a reason behind the mess.
