Arlo, If there is no exploring the MoQ, where when one makes such an attempt they are stopped mind-sentence with accusations of 'Wrong interpretation!' and served up supposedly quotes specifying the right way to interpret RMP's words, we should have trading-cards made up with various quotes and just trade them back and forth. "This trumps your quote!"

Who needs substance when you have quotes. "Unlike subject-object metaphysics the Metaphysics of Quality does not insist on a single exclusive truth." (LILA, Chapter 8) "The Metaphysics of Quality says there can be many competing truths and it is value that decides among them. This is the very essence of William James' philosophy of Pragmatism which Bohr greatly admired. The name "Complementarity" itself means there can be multiple truths."
