But look, for any event... There's an unbounded, I don't want to say infinite, but sort of ways that I might communicate that same event. This two dogs entered a room, I can say in many, many different ways. I can say, hey, there's two dogs. They entered the room. Hey, the room was entered by something. The thing that was entered was two dogs.

I mean, it's kind of awkward and weird and stuff, but those are all similar messages, right? with different forms, different ways I might frame. And of course, I use the same words there all the time. I could have referred to the dogs as a Dalmatian and a poodle or something. I could have been more specific or less specific about what they are.
