This reminds me of the Zachtronics game KOHCTPYKTOP (https://zachtronics.com/zach-like/). The game left me wanting more and wishing I was using an actual tool for learning or designing semiconductors circuits, rather than playing a game.
It was possible BITD too, but no one thought hard enough about how to do it. There has been a lot of "pushing the hardware" over the last decade. Lots of things that were thought of as "not possible" have been done now. The 99/4A community is very active, and there is a lot more going on than just new games (although that is also a big part of the activity).
Honey Badgers are pretty awesome. If I had another life to live I would move to Australia and spend at least 10 years working with honey badgers.
PBS produced a great documentary on them called "Honey Badgers: Masters of Mayhem", which exemplifies their intelligence, curiosity, and persistence. If you are a ferret owner (or just like ferrets in general), you will immediately relate to the honey badger and have an affection for them.
The documentary used to be on NetFlix but was pulled recently (not sure why). However, it is available to watch on the PBS website:
Amazon also has it for sale (absolutely worth the $6 they are asking for it), and of course someone posted it on YouTube. It is 53 minutes well worth spending.
> So creating it as a big breadboard project is out the window. No. We need to create some actual proper PCB designs that can then be connected together in a modular fashion.
Before you write off prototyping large sections on breadboards, I highly recommend you take a look at the Vulcan-74:
I've followed that thread for a long time. He keeps changing direction, which is unfortunate. His breadboarding technique is quite amazing -- I tried copying his approach and my fingers just can't do it :-)
