Chapter V · Note 07
The nail plate has a limited thickness
Every aggressive filing removes structure that cannot quickly replace itself.
Every time we aggressively file or buff, we are removing part of a structure that cannot quickly replace itself.
The upper layers do not regenerate — they must grow out.
We treat that thickness as valuable, not disposable.
