Hmmm, OK Arlo, in that sentence I put the Context 2 as an afterthought in parenthesis after those words - you could maybe read it that way - but my point is you "know" I have a broader of view of how we should interpret intellect. I couldn't possibly have meant that interpretation, given the years of exchanges gone before.
The point I keep reiterating is one of respect, if you think I said something that sounded that it could be wrongly interpreted, suggest a correction to the specific words, it's an email conversation after all. Don't (as maybe dmb did rather than you?) build an argument against the person. Let me try to rephrase that one phrase as intended. "Not allowing a narrow, SOMist, Context 2 view to dominate." (ie a broader Context 2 view of course uses subjects and objects in its intellectual description, but non-exclusively, it acknowledges there is a wider view from both contexts, where intellect can - and should - be defined as more than SOMism. Which if I recall in paraphrase is what DMB goes on to say, and why I said we agree already.) The only other point I added in the mail being referred to was simply to remind us all that "defining" this "intellect more than SOMism" remains an open issue post-Bo, but it's existence as the intellect we are talking about is not in doubt. (Plenty of previous examples of being open a to a range of possible ways to describe that MOQish-Intellect ....)
