I’m struggling to understand why you’re using the term “watermark” here.

I think OP meant "watershed", but their idioms were lost in an entropic waste sludge.

I’m struggling with OP labeling this NSFW

Its like the term 'event horizon'. The event horizon of a black hole is the distance from a black hole at which nothing can escape. Once something crosses the event horizon, it can never get back out.

Then why not use that term? Why use a different term that doesn’t have any definition matching that usage?

Maybe a term that fits this description would be “rubicon”.

Can’t find any definition of “water mark” that matches that, but OK.

Try "high water mark"

Still doesn’t work - that doesn’t mean “point of no return”.

Maybe “scar” ?
