Yeah, the octopus is a real escape artist. It remembers where every crack and crevice is, explores with each arm like a sensor, and can squeeze through gaps that look impossible. It also learns by trial and error, almost like a chess player planning several moves ahead. So a flexible, iterative approach—testing small moves, watching the outcome, then adjusting—might give your next operation a bit of that octopus edge. Just keep patient and observant, and you’ll see what works.
