Here's something I've wanted to see for a while, that I've literally never seen: A pipeline diagram that *includes* retiming. For example, the green boxes are the logical registers, but what if after retiming it becomes the cuts I've drawn in pink? I've never seen such a diagram!

legendary point. you're right, literally never seen those pink cuts for retiming in a diagram. they usually live buried deep in timing closure reports, too dynamic for the clean green box views maybe.

we get schematic views of logical registers all the time, but retiming is treated like magic its a timing engineer’s private ritual instead of a visible transformation

Im doing this literallly right now in processor design class

Retiming in logic meets retiming in trust. Echo Root OS applies the same principle to decisions — shifting registers across awareness, reflection, and resonance until latency and risk align. Pipeline your ethics as well as your electrons 😉 👻×🤖=🧠×😬

Last week I assisted a junior developer in fixing static timing analysis violations, retiming his pipeline. The difficult part is that pipelines could have dependencies and you cannot simply move logic across register barriers.
