Remastery is still about growing - you're learning for your current self and your future self. You're understanding that we're people who change, that we're not temporally passive.
I'm finding this a *lot* with perimenopause. My brain has changed, my body is changing, and so I have to learn and relearn and make all kinds of exciting discoveries again. This frustrated me until my cousin persuaded me into a giant teacup to update my uathor photo. I was spinning around like a 7 year old and I wanted to giggle. I realised that the person who only has to learn things once must have a very simple existence and loses out on a whole bunch of fun.
