Re: [vwrap] [wvrap] Simulation consistency

As stated, "it didn't happen." The concepts and ideas are still iconic 
natured and useful as such. It's iconic usefulness as like that of 
infinite tense that all English teachers want their students to write in 
& with figure-of-speech, its the wrong way. That is the nature of 
English infinite tense. All other tenses are correct, and teachers 
expect you to "correct" infinite tense, yet they don't teach that. 
That's the basis of sentience. Infinite tense is logically always in error.

Now with that in mind, "we" did not misunderstand the issues. Don't 
blame others until you look in the mirror more. What makes sense to you 
doesn't guarantee it makes sense to everybody else. The "graphic form" 
does not denote sense to visual people! Don't assume this! Like I said, 
visual people need complete ideas. Visual people don't remember 
dictionary definitions as much as auditory people don't remember graphic 
notations. It's because 60% of the people are auditory (they remember 
active speech) they are at constant battle with themselves in attempts 
to help the other 40% everywhere they don't need help -- is why there is 
ANY miscomprehension.

Visual people find it completely dumb idea to have dictionaries full 
words that have any prefixes or suffixes, as that is wasted resources. 
Only the root words with possible prefixes and suffixes are of need. The 
reason why they don't exist this way is because of "figure-of-speech" 
and proof of that 60%. Unless you are somehow smarter than the best and 
the brightest, I doubt you can solely point out bad ideas such as 
dictionaries that list every combination of root words with every 
possible suffix and prefix individually such that basically kills us off 
slowly with lack of symbiotic flow due to trees used for the numerous 
pages published as scholarly works. It's a killing.
