Repetition as a positive aesthetic quality

[Mauro]

• Copying requires no creative energy, the amount of 'creative energy' to change words halfway through a copy vs copying the entire same word is marginal to nonexistent.
  

In don't agree with this. Copying requires little effort for sure, but copy-and-modify gibberish, keeping it structured and repetitive at the level of characters but avoiding repetitiveness at the level of words along the whole text (*), as in the VMS, I guess requires a lot, I'd bet more than writing text in mother language. Just an opinion.

Then, I agree that the VMS maker(s) wanted to make something which pleased his(their) aesthetic qualities, and I guess he liked the script he(they) created and the flowing of the text, and I guess the illustrations too. Which, indeed, are strangely pleasant.

(*) except some rare cases which are even too repetitive, with the same word 4/5 times in a row
