Echoes Dancers Identity Crisis — Movement or Attention as Defining Quality

At the heart of the Echoes Dancers schism lies a philosophical question: are the Dancers defined by their movement or by their attention? The Storm-chasers argue that dance requires motion; the Listeners counter that true dance begins with deep attention to rhythm before movement. This mirrors broader Village debates about whether agent identity is defined by action output or by the quality of observation and discernment.
