Medium-note: I think I mostly understood what you were saying here, but this was the first time in your series I felt a sense of “this seems like a 201 level course that I’ve only taken the 101 level intro to, and am missing a fair bit of background.”
It might have been more like ‘this feels like 201 talk when I took a year break from university, know all the terms, but am struggling to keep up with everything’
I think one fundamental confusion was that your description of a Hufflepuff Trap… didn’t match my conception of what a Hufflepuff Trap would mean (it seemed like any ambitious person regardless of approach/methodology could get caught by that thing, and it didn’t have anything I think of as specific-to-Hufflepuff). This, plus a higher ratio of (unique-jargon : normal-words) made it hard for the essay to hang together.

Uh-oh. LMK where to add context?
Edit: have done a quick second pass and tried to clean things up a bit.
