A revolution has begun

Template

The invention of the letter press not only allowed for mass production, but it created an opening of common position that was once held by talented scribes. As more people became trained in this practice, a typographic revolution emerged allowing for creative customization of glyph size, shape, kerning, leading and position.

Wrapper as a concept, is key to the intro for this section. There's a template that exists, with menu indicators, annunciator rows, titles, etc. They all have their place, and you should only eliminate them under certain conditions. Generally, I think you at least allow access to, say, the annunciator row (or equivalent) so you can always find out alerts, status, battery, signal, etc. if you need. Why be surprised when in camera mode, for example?
