Fantastic piece. The tension between institutional constraint and substantive innovation really captures something universal about policy work. I've been in similar situatons where the hardest part wasn't finding the right words but building enough domain knowledge to even understand what needed saying. His point about "dancing in shackles" made me rethink how creativity actually works inside bureaucratic systems, it's not about breaking rules but finding the space where real ideas can still land and make a diference.
It's interesting how you highlighted 'dance in shackles'. That phrase perfectly captures the complex tightrope walk these ghostwriters must preform, truly insightful.
