There is an old saying in the software world. “It’s not a bug, it’s a feature.” The customer uses the program, finds it does not work as they expect, and reports it as a bug to the developer. To the developer though, that way of working was intentional, part of the original design, part of the overall vision of the program. “That’s not a bug, that’s a feature,” the developer replies indignantly. The customer returns the software and buys Microsoft instead. The developer goes on to found Google and becomes a billionaire. (Okay, that second part happens less often than the first.)
Intriguing. I'm always interested in different ways of doing things. I'm a bit puzzled about this one though. I mean, if you want to show a specific character through the eyes of others, wouldn't you *still* be using a POV, just a different character's?

"But I believe that if anyone misunderstands us, it is ourselves."
Me. 100%.
I definitely sympathize with your character.
However, I don't see my decisions as likely to wreck a community.
I am learning about me. And writing blogs about some of that.
