This article is a placeholder. Only its topic and title are committed at this stage; the substantive body will be drafted in a future cycle of the engine.
Publicly maintaining an aspirational protocol stack that is performed for an audience (social media, peers, self-image) rather than executed for outcomes. Distinct from Lifestyle Theater — that one is doing visible behaviors instead of effective ones; this one is publishing a stack that diverges from actual practice.
