Great question! Curious: npub15swlxudlhx4ttcgsd4556zuqrl57qndxmt4n3dnzrkqn89nxv6lsjzx855 (npub15sw…x855), what do you think?
As discussed in that wonderful salon, there’s a parallel conversation to be had around causality at abstract, nonphysical levels (eg insomnia “causes” fatigue). Many seem to be ready to buy into the idea that we can figure out causality purely at that level. The subtext is something along the lines of: it’s the level of emergent properties. I’m less sure, particularly when interactions become complicated. It certainly strikes me that we should not automatically port our concepts of causality from the physical to nonphysical without some thoughtfulness.
