Community and squads
Cookrange's social layer is not a feature list but a behavioural claim: people who see their own streak next to someone else's behave differently from people tracking alone. This section examines where that claim holds and where it does not - what the right squad size is, which personality types do better tracking solo, how a coach reads progress without reaching into an athlete's data. There is no shared streak to break; everyone keeps their own column. Where the privacy boundary sits is stated explicitly in every post.
