Past a certain point, being good stops earning applause and starts earning questions. Too fast, too clean, too young. The question changes from how did you do that to how did you really do that.

In 2022 a world chess champion withdrew from a tournament after losing to a 19-year-old, and much of the internet decided the kid must have had help. Now a well-written paragraph gets asked whether a person wrote it at all.

Excellence is a red flag. Carry it anyway.
