Success! In fact, it tastes pretty good! Not "chewy," which is, well, the point.
It's hard to wrap my head around what went *right* this time, though. I'll say it's the smaller loaf size and the drier dough. I also think in the future I'll be laying off the bread flour -- it seemed to stay together anyway (nice!).
I could have cooked it longer for a crispy crust, but maybe it needs another taste... 😄

@upside in my experience, the single most important thing to make any bread fluffier is simply waiting longer for the dough to rise. The usually recommended times for yeast to do its job (2 hours or even less) is simply not enough with the regular consumer ingredients. YMMV, of course!
