When I make my continuum claim, then people try to come up, okay, well, what about this?
You know, what about this?
And I haven't found one yet that really shoots that down, that you can't zoom in and say, yeah, okay, but right before then this happened.
And then if we really look close, like here's a bunch of steps in between, right?
Pretty much everything ends up being a continuum.
But here's what I think is much more interesting than trying to make that line.
I think what's really more useful is trying to understand the transformation process.
What is it that happened to scale up?
And I'll give you a really dumb example.

I know what an adult is.
You're crazy to say that there's no difference.
I'm not saying there's no difference.
What I'm saying is the word adult is really helpful in court because you just need to move things along.
