1-1a4b2 Problems arise only when you reason via abduction
9-4b1a Abductions are historic events. Real writing is history being written.
1-1c6a1b Your ability to detect surprises will get better, and you will never be short of them
9-2a2 You have to figure out where you are going by living abductively via surprises
4-1c Great negotiators actively try to reveal hidden assumptions, that is, they look for surprises. They are more than just being ready for them.
1-1a5a2 Good writing happens at the edge of explicit-inexplicit or explicit-unconscious — that is, via surprises.
2-1a6c4a Randomness is an emergent phenomenon inherent within each universe
2-1a6c5 ‘Randomness’ is the opportunity to reason abductively
1-2g2t3e Other life-forms can’t permeate across the multiverse because biological knowledge is primarily about the surrounding environment and its correspondence within THAT universe, and the latter is subject to ‘randomness’
9-4b2b2 We are also free because we are in the multiverse
1-2g2s7a Knowing probability doesn’t mean you can predict it

The multiverse implies fungibility. We find the multiverse in explaining fungibility found in quantum phenomena:
1-2g2t4 Because fungibility exists (i.e., histories DO rejoin) we must evoke the multiverse. The multiverse emerged from quantum physics (genealogically).
1-2g2s5 When the instances are fungible, there is no such thing as ‘which’ - histories and individual particles are not perfectly partitioned into instances
But remember: the multiverse exists objectively.
1-2g2s6a The multiverse is the objective reality. Each universe is an emergent phenomenon in the context of this reality.
