Do you find it creates an intense self awareness and vigilance that is always ‘on’? in the background?
I’m biased, my experience is that I have recon the first month of a new sub. After that, it’s continued progress, or transforming.
How much does anti-recon improve the actual results or the outcome, or does it just make the experience smoother?
If just smoother, I don’t see much value in anti-recon at the cost of features.
To find a middle ground, the suggestion of having a separate anti-recon title makes sense to me. Recon is most debilitating when initially running a new sub, and you will be able to adopt it to your own need.
Can’t quite make that determination yet given that it’s so early. So far, based upon what I’m seeing – and those who have tried it can clarify – it seems to have enhanced both results and smoothed the experienced. But again, it’s so early on that most users probably haven’t differentiated between smoothness and result potential yet.
What are the early thoughts of those who’ve tried it thus far regarding this?

No, it works only when both minds reconcile.
It’s not about an intense awareness or vigilance but two parties that have a certain issue to discuss and find a solution to it that would satisfy both of them. The new tech is like a mediator that helps them understand one another.

You know, I’ve been thinking about something in relation to the whole ‘anti-recon’ debate, and it came to me as an image. Have you seen the movie Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse? The main character keeps struggling (internally) to become the new Spider-Man. He keeps asking things like, ‘When will I know I’m ready?’ And the other Spider respond, ‘You don’t. It’s a leap of faith.’
Personally, I believe that recon, for me, has a lot to do with that place — the place of leaving the known behind and really taking that leap of faith into the unknown.
I mean, in the sense of letting go of the identity, the structures of that old version of yourself, and truly opening up to the new — a new that can be accessed and held without so much struggle, you know?
I don’t know… I think of a script that takes that into account: the human fear of facing the unknown, of accessing something greater, of leaving behind what’s ‘normal’ in order to become the ‘super’ — but not in a forceful way. In a gentle way.
Like that divine hand that holds the Being and softly guides it to a new place. That’s another image that comes to my mind.

Buuut- less recon means moar room for moar titles in the #Doomstack, yes!?
No…?
Hokey, I’ll see myself out… 
This is what I think Genesis is about. And it’s right there in the name. A new beginning; a rebirth.
Of course that’s going to feel like a crisis, depending on how tightly you hold onto what was before. And there’s no shame or blame in that.
But it’s also true that no one comes to these resources in order to stay exactly the same.

If this goes through I would stack it with my Khan name embed tracks (already made with some other module) tbh. 
I didn’t listen to them yet but looking for an opportunity to somehow run them with the anti-recon.
