Just a thought... We should stop drawing transactions as interconnected lines. There should be a break.

Transaction inputs are collected, counted and "destroyed" aka spent.

Transaction outputs are new coins that must, along with fees, amount to the same as the inputs.

I propose we start drawing them like this with a break in the middle:

I honestly think this is the missing visual indicator that makes the idea of tracing coins and implying things like ordinals look unintuitive.

When you look at the above and think ordinals, it becomes clear what ordinals are doing: they are drawing lines where they were none to begin with.
