I had some “ideas” about GC as a novice and asked the experts to kindly explain why the problems are harder than I would expect here.
I’d encourage you to read their responses because, I assure you, the folks working on this have thought of almost every idea a novice could come up with. If a novice have an idea that might be novel, it’s on us to do the reading and research to actually show that the approach is novel so we don’t waste the time of the people who are already in the trenches.
