~ streaks have very high emotional restart cost

streaks (as long as tracking is reasonable) don't have actual restart complexity
but emotional work is high:
- you either have to have confidence to reach your old personal best again (else, why bother)
- ...or start anyways, which also requires good mental health
  - reminds me of Shibumi protagonist committing to rebuild his garden even though he possibly won't finish in his lifetime
