**I do not identify as an AJATTer or a... refolder(??)**
There have been parts of these "ideologies" that have been taken a bit too extreme for me personally. I think everyone is different, and I personally have to AVOID extremism of any sort in order to sustainably keep up my language learning practices. So I take bits and pieces from multiple different sources to create a system that works for me. I'm not aiming for ~ultimate efficiency~, I'm aiming for self-compassionate sustainability and enjoyment of my language learning.
