Said another way: is it impossible to use something which everybody has access to to make something artful?
Or I will try it a third way. Does the fact that people take bad pictures on their iPhones prevent other people from shooting whole professional movies on iPhones?
In answer to that message: taking bad pictures on an iphone is not something celebrate or recognize no.
ex: getting a big seed round from a VC for your start up still may show that your parents had connections.
but marathons have this grindability and somewhat stable feedback loop.
