Dear Roger,
Flies can unify their vision because the distance between their
individual eyes is small and the number is finite. One can still
manage to get a mutually commuting set of observations in these
conditions. When one has an arbitrarily large distance between a pair
of "eyes" and the number of them is infinite then it is impossible to
have a mutually commuting set of observations. This is the problem of
omniscience.
I have two eyes and no problem unifying them. Vision takes place in
the brain, not the eyes.
