Update in case anyone is interested. The Butterfly picks felt like strapping a prop from Edward Scissorhands onto my fingers. Nope.

The Alaska picks are okay because they go under the nail and can be filed, so I'll keep them around for those times when my fingers hurt a little and I need a break.

But I'm about done with picks of any kind altogether. They just feel so intuitively wrong for what I'm doing that I'm gonna stick with my fingers for now. I also value the ability to be able to play any guitar anywhere without worrying about whether I have my "special" picks with me.

So that is the result. So far. Maybe. Probably.
