Most systems do not need more motion. They need a clearer read on what is actually getting in the way.
That is the work I keep coming back to: find the bottleneck and cut what is unnecessary.
I do that work inside large operating systems under real load. The same pattern shows up in organizations where good intent can still turn into too much activity.
为无为，则无不治. Good systems leave room for judgment instead of crowding it out.
