Yeah, I think that's a fair way of thinking about it, especially since we drew a lot of inspiration from Hypercard itself.

I think the distinction is that a tool helps you do something more efficiently while still generally thinking about the problem in the same way. What we're proposing is a very different way of thinking about the problem, which is what I think starts to define a paradigm. That being said, this is largely semantics and not a very valuable thing to argue about: paradigms come to be by the accident of use, so we'll find out when we launch and build a community around Eve.
