I believe I said that I have championed the view that "many peaks" is
a distinct possibility. But since many who claim enlightenement, have
no interest or pehaps ability to identify attributes of their
enlightenement as they define it, validation of the above hypotheses
stalls a bit.

Read above. It has a lot of usefulness and relevance.

Well, thats a POV. It rasies quesions on several levels as to why that
POV is comfortable for you.
Personally, I think the terms and labels A and E have little
value. However, I have made the simple request that if and when
people feel such terms are useful in their posts, it would improve
communicaions if they defined them. To indicate differences in how
they use the terms compared to the MMY attributes. Otherwise, any such
posts are a hodgepodge of possible meanings and are next to worthless,
IMO.
And the eleucidation of such attributes of ones enlightenment would
assist in illuminating if the "many peaks" hypothesis is valid. But
since many who claim enlightenement, have no interest or pehaps
ability to identify attributes of their enlightenement as they define
it, validation of the above hypotheses stalls a bit.
And to use the terms A and E without clarifying the attributes meant,
is a type of logical fallacy, if not slight of hand. Being a list with
strong TM roots, a starting point for many is to use MMY's attributes
to define enlightenment(s). If one is using E. or similar terms, but
meaning a state with different attributes than the MMY 18, its honest
and an act of integrity to clarify that.
