Haha, would've been a better tag idd (will try to edit, thanks for mentioning ;)! )

Thanks for sharing your thoughts as well, I actually didn't look at it from that angle while writing this. And I really appreciate the different viewpoInt you add here!
I agree on how different settings or circumstances require other (necessary/preferable) skills and concepts to fit in. But I wouldn't say that adapting to the (new) situation at hand makes you a better "you" per se. Your skillset and resilience might have improved, but what about other aspects that make humans persons? Right? ;)
Love your view, and happy you brought it up, thanks!
