You’ve obviously put a lot more thought into this than I ever will, but I’ve never reached a point of claustrophobia, more the opposite, like agoraphobia. Every time I learn a little more there’s references to things I don’t know yet so need to learn those to understand that. But surprise! That topic also has references and underlying details I don’t understand and haven’t heard of before.

I get very intimidated by the awareness of the sheer scope of my ignorance.
