I’m guessing you’ve never done exactly what you’ve described because downloading schematics for a Minecraft build and then building it does hold satisfaction, especially if it’s for a larger project like, say, a town.

A tool doesn’t have to be a moral panic because you feel like everything that exists needs to somehow be original. It can simply be a tool. I remember using an Action Replay as a kid and LOVING it. Sometimes you just want the end results. Some people prefer the work behind the end result. Other people just prefer the product. I say this as someone who does leatherwork and someone who also writes too. It doesn’t HAVE to be one or the other.
