Helmut: As a footnote to the exceedingly curious developments of scientific terminologies, I would note that: 1. Robert Rosen denied the role of chemical emergence in his category-theory based book, Life Itself. 2. The Scandia school of Biosemiotics adopts the evolutionary theory while rejecting the chemical theory. 3. The formal logic advocates ignore emergence and evolution but nevertheless assert the implication sign as symbolic anticipation!.
CSP assertion of Quali-sign —> Sinsign —> Legi-sign forms the logical and semantic grounding for the chemical sciences. Consequently, his syntactical trichotomy for the relative logics of the chemical table of elements also grounds the abstractions for the numerical logics of atomic and molecular sentences. Thus, by vague conjecture, CSP was motivated to develop the concept of the phanoscopy differs from the Husserl’s notion of phenomenology by the modal logics of conscious feelings.
