# Where the two fight
# - Minimalism and Web 2.0 Gloss share no intent, so the contrast has to become the subject rather than something to smooth over.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Minimalism: Missing information is not minimal. Decide priorities before you cut.
# - Web 2.0 Gloss: In real UI, restrain shadows and reflections so state differences stay legible.
