Hi Giuseppe--
"Spoon way" is the oposite to "Intelligent Shrink" ideas.
Spoon Way = Add all as you want. IS = Erase all you don't need.
But of course the starting point for Spoon was produced by erasing everything that isn't needed (in this case, everything that isn't needed to start and extend the system). That's *exactly* what you're talking about, and it's provably correct. I encourage everyone to re-read the progress reports in the Spoon archives[1], starting at [2] is probably best. I have written about this at length.
thanks,
