And last but not least, there is my phronesis meta-semeiotical turn based
on the ultimate greatest understanding about the sole underlying structure
and nature of all of our universes. Which lead to  the development of my
phronesis meta-semeiotical body of understanding for everything. An
ultimate great methodology for understanding and improving really
everything.

Anything else/before is minor and reductionist and incomplete...
