This is a lovely explaination, but circling back to the reason we're even discussing it. I don't want to play cool things. I want to strum my ukulele with a bunch of other people and feel like I'm part of something but not work too hard. I've memorized my favorite/most comfortable chord fingerings, and the most common progressions and that's all I do.

I bake in the same way. I have a few recipes I like. The most deviation I do is halving or doubling. But the recipe is good so the food turns out fine.

There's plenty of other stuff I'm a nerd about and I get deep into the weeds of tiny details with other people who care deeply.
