I get why we have the “shitty first draft” language (anxiety & pressure reduction, great), but oh how I hate it.
What about a tender first draft. What about a fresh first draft. Dewy. Just spun. A spiderweb. A draft of sunlight. A pile of leaves. You rake your fingers through them and they rustle.

I know a major part of writing is making an unwieldy, shitty first draft, but god, there’s nothing I hate more than being in the middle of an unwieldy, shitty first draft

The first draft is for telling yourself the story, revisions are for telling your readers.
I don't like "Your first draft will be shitty" as advice, because it's a really negative framing.
I prefer, "You have the freedom to be messy creating your first draft."
Anyone crafter knows what their room looks like mid-creation. Writers should be as free to be as exhuberent and messy.
