That's an excellent point, I had not thought about it like that.

I know what you mean, they were revolutionary regarding their origami works. Now I'd say that what NeverCeaseToCrease meant with "skill ceiling" is something very different. He meant that each person has a limit regarding their potential ability in a particular skill or task. People would have a different level of potential skill on origami, or anything else for that matter, and they won't be able to surpass it no matter how hard they try. That's what I understood

HankSimon, does your answer somehow relate to my question about if origami tends to ambiguety?

Baltotigamist or origami_8, this definitely has too much to do with origami. Would you please move the thread to the "General Origami Talk" subforum?
