Illustration: In a compact Japanese kitchen, a person turns their head toward a phone held in one hand while setting a mug down with the other. Their eyes remain on the phone, and the mug's base lands partly beyond the counter edge. It has just begun to tip, sending a small arc of tea toward the floor.
