Acting is an augmentation, not a replacement. It's a skill set. It involves a capacity
to embody social expectations so that one's audience doesn't notice any difference. It's
the same exact result from the third person view. An actor is a zombie being operated by
a person.
The idea is to replace parts so that there is no behavior difference *under any
circumstance* - acting, as you've conceived it, is limited to a particular situation.
