Perflection (noun, verb)

perfect flaw that sets it apart from the rest.”
(verb) To intentionally
perfect a project, task, or idea to the point where it feels almost too flawless, but then adding one deliberate imperfection to give it personality and charm.

sure every plot twist is smooth, but adding one unpredictable detail at the end.”
