@AlSweigart I think it might be worth enumerating the limitations of the hardware and rather than focusing on an 8-bit aesthetic, trying to categorize them as "simplifying implementation strategy still relevant in the modern era" and "retro aesthetic"; for example, I think that "limited color palette" doesn't really buy you much today, but "single screen rooms" does still present a vast simplification for many salient concerns
