​I'll tell you what John Clark didn't forget, what Bruno Marchal just said
"​
 "I" designates the M guy experience in Moscow, and the W experience of the
W-guy in W
​" and if that's true then the personal pronoun "I" is ambiguous with no
ifs ands or buts about it. ​And that ambiguity is the one and only reason
Bruno Marchal persists in using personal pronouns despite numerous requests
to stop. Ambiguous language is a friend of sloppy thinking.

John Clark thinks "you" will survive two and non-unique with a probability
one, ​

​but if Bruno Marchal is right and John Clark is wrong then which ONE
unique thing is it, Moscow or Washington? ​ If Bruno Marchal doesn't have a
one word answer to this question and can only come up with a paragraph full
of peepee and views and FPIs then the personal pronoun "I" is ambiguous.

​No idea what a "1-1 I" is and very much doubt it is worth knowing.
