Simplify canonicalization. This leads to a sheaf of possible use cases.

I don't know that I ever wanted greatness, on its own. It seems rather
like wanting to be an engineer, rather than wanting to design something,
or wanting to be a writer, rather than wanting to write. It should be a
by-product, not a thing in itself. Otherwise, it's just an ego trip.
