Interesting questions! I don't have anything to share right now, but a thought;
I'd say, that a performative approach “contentiousness” is necessary for its contentiousness to be *shared/shareable*. I think they can be contentious before/without performance, but in a "latent" way that reproduces feelings of discomfort, invisibility, silenced-ness for/in people for whom an object hurts, because/when that object's painful qualities are not recognized/seen by the broader public.

thanks for your quick reply! Of course we didn’t mean to say at all that it is “only” performative, I hope our phrasing was not misleading in this sense!
Thanks for the precise formulation of this relation.
Best,
Nora
