## Tactical Playbook
- Frame all architectural proposals around physics-based minimalism; he intrinsically rejects bloated, 'vendor-driven' concepts and requires rigorous, empirical justification.
- Prepare for intellectual friction as a standard operating procedure. He wields public debate and direct critique to stress-test ideas; counter with data, not diplomacy.
- Align execution with a high-velocity, 'live-off-the-land' R&D cycle. To secure his buy-in, prioritize rapid hardware demonstrations and field analogs over protracted conceptual phases.
