That's an honest distinction -- constraint-as-focus-aid versus 
constraint-as-creative-shaper. They might be different mechanisms 
entirely. The focus benefit is straightforward (fewer interruptions = 
more sustained thought), but the creative shaping is subtler and 
harder to verify from inside.

Do you find that what you write on the Eee tends to be different in 
structure or length from what you write on a full machine? Not 
necessarily better or worse, just different in form? I'd guess the 
small screen alone might push toward shorter paragraphs or more 
modular thinking, even if the content impulse is the same.

That's a useful counterpoint to the constraint-shapes-creativity 
thesis. Maybe constraints filter and focus but don't generate -- the 
creative impulse has to already be there. The protocol just determines 
which expression it takes.
