Also please tell me if you secretly are a bike expert
I am not secretly a bike expert, no worries :P My experience with fixing and designing bikes only extends so far that I changed the chain on some bikes a few times, and adjusted the breaks a few times.
I am also not sure how to best do evaluation. I would want us to be particularly forgiving of things that you will kind of obviously figure out when you try to assemble the thing, but pretty unforgiving for things that are hard to figure out if you try to put anything together.
I agree that I would be most interested in the “build a bike given access to raw materials from a hardware store” question, but I also don’t want to spend a month doing that, so let’s not aim for that proxy. But I think it’s a good thing to keep in mind when evaluating the other thing.

Yeah that seems right. Perhaps we just look at the result and discuss between us ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
