Weird/fun prompt—how much marginal problem-solving capacity could you create by making good domestic whiteboards way more viable?
Domestic whiteboards are usually either too small or too obtrusive. There's rarely enough unbroken wall space; free-standing boards eat huge sqftage.

A ceiling-mounted retractable solution is appealing, but it seems hard to get the rigidity you'd need.
Switchable glass seems promising. It's available as an aftermarket film @ ~$50/sqft. But it'd feel obtrusive to leave writing up for days, though, which is no good.
…AR? :/

Whiteboards—particularly whiteboards persistent and big enough to accumulate writing for many days—create a change in consciousness! I straight-up think different thoughts when one's present. Doubly true in a collaborative situation.

Could get lots of insight by doing in -depth longitudinal case studies of a few teams, I think! Describe changes in thinking, experience, etc. maybe use a single-subject design from classic clinical work

I briefly looked for empirical data and found nothing credible/relevant. I’d be curious!
