Balsam is one tool. There have to be more.

No single app can do the whole of inner work. That's the premise the lab starts from.

Balsam can be specific because it is only trying to help with one kind of weight.

That is the whole point of the lab. Inner work changes shape from season to season, and the software should be allowed to do the same instead of stretching one product until it becomes vague.

So the ambition here is not a platform. It is a family of smaller tools that each know what they are for.
