(There should be ONE) - What's actually necessary vs nice-to-have? - What can be removed, hidden, or combined? - What's the 20% that delivers 80% of value? If any of these are unclear from the codebase, ask the user. **CRITICAL**: Simplicity is not about removing features. It's about removing obstacles between users and their goals. Every element should justify its existence. ## Plan Simplification Create a ruthless editing strategy: - **Core purpose**: What's the ONE thing this should accomplish? - **Essential elements**: What's truly necessary to achieve that purpose? - **Progressive disclosure**: What can be hidden until needed? - **Consolidation opportunities**: What can be
