Dear Boekenwuurm and Team:Terrain,
Thank you for taking my thoughts into account, I appreciate that.
That said, even though I originally suggested "low volume camping", at
second thought it still feels too vague. What's low volume for someone,
might still be disruptive for another.
That's why I compare it to the Stiltecoupé - it's not called "lage ruis
coupé" of "laag volume coupé" for a reason ;). They also can't guarantee
silence, but it sets a clear intention.
So while the update is a step in the right direction, I would very much
appreciate a clearer framing like Silent or Quiet. I'm pretty sure nobody
would expect a "volume guard", but just shared social group expectations.
And of course, if we won't agree on this, I still vouch for any upgrade
over "Corner Camping".
Kind regards as always,
Boots
