This makes so much sense to me! ...and yet I can see that systems might not designed to automatically provide "extra space" to focus on that person at that moment - nor would it necessarily be "on the radar" for any given person who sees them.

That is exciting! Also, I love that in that context, they found training grandmothers, specifically, to be a game-changer. I sometimes observe contexts where grandmothers are tremendous sources of strength for their families!!
