Philosophy
You didn't buy a new Mac
to stare at a spinning wheel
The light shifted. Something moved. You pressed the shutter because your instinct said now — and somewhere in those thousands of frames is the one that proves you were right.
But you'll never find it staring at a frozen thumbnail. Every second the software lags, your memory of the moment cools. The gut feeling that told you this is the one fades into doubt.
Culling should feel like a light table — instant, tactile, alive. Your eye already knows the answer. The software should respect that.
