when laid out like that those paper cranes look like caterpillars

A genius like Nitori doesn't let a mere broken arm stop her from creating ultimately useless machinery.

I dunno if it's 'useless' per se. If it can be adjusted to do more than just cranes, it would actually be pretty neat.

As Farnsworth once said, It can do other things! Why shouldn't it?!

As someone who has done something similar with software (making something to automate a task I was unable to do myself), I have a ton of respect for Nitori.

As someone who wishes to do the samething, I have a ton of respect for you.

Thank you! Keep at it, don't focus on doing things exactly how you'd do it if a series of more repetitive but simpler tasks will reach an identical objective, and make sure you're leveraging the computer's advantages (flawless repetition, searching volumes of data, patience, ability to work for literal days) to make up for loss of your advantages (adaptability, pattern recognition, intelligence). Good luck!
