Is there a concept like antihormesis where steady, accumulating responses to stressors with insufficient recovery makes you more fragile rather than antifragile? Feels strange that this obvious default case and normal chronic stress response but has no word. Fragilization?

This has been my main dissatisfaction around antifragility. It theorizes the corner case without theorizing the default case. Sapolosky’s stuff is as good as it gets, and that’s very limited to zebra-level biological phenomenology. Cc

Replying to @amurshak @context_ing
In the long term nothing *is* alive. We all die. The default case is fragility until we invent immortality.

That’s not what I’m talking about. It’s not magnitudes. I’m talking repeated low magnitude streams. Having to jump from bench all your life.

Meh, and a fundamental property that kills it eventually is fragility. No point arguing which is the better default case for theorizing. Pick the one that suits your problem.
