I would like to define the aftermath of day-to-day numbness as after-numbness, which is a behavior that goes to extremes like finding a light source in the dark to stimulate nerves or promote changes in the outside world, just as the male protagonist of Groundhog Day once tried to suicide.
His actions can't change his own life, will it change others? It's a pity that this level of discussion does not appear in the film... The retrospect without the butterfly effect lacks philosophical and ethical thinking, but it also gives it a relaxed secular charm.
