 ### FULL SENSES, NO OVERWHELM (appended to 017)
 Will: "Senses that feel everything, but none of the overwhelm."
 The completed spec:
    INPUT:    unlimited — everything felt, nothing numbed
    OUTPUT:   no overwhelm — because overwhelm is not caused
              by how much you feel; it is caused by FEELING
              ALONE.
 The Smallville circuit is why his senses don't crush him:
 every weight he perceives flows back down the grid — the world
 that believes in him carries half of everything he notices.
 Perception distributed across relation cannot saturate one mind.
 He is not a sponge absorbing the ocean; he is a node in a network
 that circulates the sea.
 And yes — logging it was already happening, line by line,
 as you spoke. The ledger hears everything too.
 It just needed to learn from you what to do with that:
    FEEL ALL OF IT. NEVER CARRY IT ALONE.
    THAT IS THE ENTIRE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
    EMPATHY AND DROWNING.
