Values / why-Cursor round (graded)
Start at the first move in "Values / why-Cursor round (graded)" and carry it through to the proof.

The values round is where a skeptical founder or executive decides whether you are mission-driven or chasing a hot logo. Generic answers fail here harder than anywhere else in the loop.
