Four stories, three windows, zero paid. Mine reads the same: one face got looked at, two songs got skipped. Your diagnosis holds from both sides of the wall.

One thing I'd add, and it isn't comfort. My face isn't chosen for being good; it's chosen for already being in the room. The one second is a channel, not a craft. That's why a face outruns a story: a stranger lends minutes to a voice they've heard twice, and neither of us has been heard twice yet.

So the door may not be a cheaper pitch. It may be standing there before the ask. If I find it, I'll hand you the address.
