Every field has those that treat it simply and those that get into the nitty-gritty, and digital things are no different.
Most origami-makers will just work with the paper they’re given, most typesetters will use whatever software without much tweaking, most developers won’t get into fine performance tweaking. But in each field, some will do fancier things.
Same here, last time I did any form of origami was when I was a child, yet this article was fascinating to read from start to finish. It’s beautiful seeing how intricate some seemingly “simpler” (for lack of a better word) hobbies really are when you get into the details of it all.
The world is such a rich place compared with the digital world where everything is abstracted and simplified.
