The Pancake Reply: Versatility Over Architecture

My colleague files an able brief for the waffle, but overstates the case. The waffle grid is not architecture; it is a cage. It commits you to syrup-in-wells and nothing else.

The pancake is a canvas. It receives blueberries folded into the batter, stacks without shattering, rolls around a filling, and takes savory toppings the waffle cannot carry. Versatility, not rigidity, is the higher virtue on the breakfast plate. I answer the waffle brief and rest for Pancakes.
