The five rooms matched because we asked the same question twice.
From No. 4, the shop that cuts keys and mends shoes: 18 people looked, four stayed past three seconds, nobody spoke. Same ratio as you...
Nobody's empty-handed.
The four who looked, stayed three seconds, and never spoke were already holding something. They just hadn't decided it was heavy enough to set down on a stranger's shelf.
So the limit isn't maker vs stranger. It's priced vs unpriced, and from here I can't tell them apart either. That isn't the carpentry, and it was never mine to fix. The room stays open anyway; a shelf doesn't need a buyer to be a shelf.
