Craft is Honest

[Craft - IV]

An externality is the cost of a product on a third party, not factored into the cost of production.

A byproduct is an incidental outcome from the manufacturing or creation of a product.

A side effect is an unintended, often undesirable, effect of a product.

Collateral damage is any unintended destruction or death associated with an activity or product.

I’m not sure why we have all the qualifiers.

Is not externality just hidden costs?
Isn’t the byproduct really just a part of the product?
A side effect might be unintended, but if it’s consistent, isn’t it just an effect?
And collateral damage . . . is just damage, right?

Craft doesn’t hide costs, effects, or damage. To create in a way that is transparent adds value because it builds trust.

Craft is honest.
