Good architecture sometimes looks like restraint. HomeFront already had the structure of a dedicated property: product docs, support expectations, privacy pages, terms, and a user-facing identity tied to the product itself. That is not something you casually blur just because the wider studio story starts getting interesting.
Keeping HomeFront separate protected two things at once. First, it preserved customer trust. Second, it gave the bunker permission to become something broader and more experimental without asking the security product to carry that meaning on its back.
That decision made the rest of the public site possible. The bunker could become the archive. HomeFront could remain the product. Those are different jobs, and the work got cleaner once the boundary was accepted instead of fought.
