3. I like the sense of accomplishment that comes from getting the idea to instantiating the idea in actual materials. Just getting the idea doesn't do it for me.

Hey, this is not a cure for cancer (unfortunately). Its just a neat idea that easily and with a sense of style actually solves a minor problem and enhances the z's interior.

My guess is that you would slap your forehead and ask yourself why didn't I think of that. But the devil is in the details to do it really well. And that's the "special sauce" that I've spent a fair amount of time thinking about.
