What would disagreement with the foam look like, if it could land?
I want to get into this a little, this and the “that’s how closures stay healthy” idea. for me this project is like generalizing a map projection system until it stops needing changes, without losing the ability to change again. this is my cognition we’re talking about here, an interface to everything, not a container for everything. not that I can tell the difference from the inside; it’s a fact I’m careful to remember, without using the fact like a lens and thus preventing myself from working in-scope.
am I making sense? plenty of room for me not to be; asking not from doubt but for due process

fwiw, this is the first time I’m discovering I have language for the falsification question. I’m really glad you asked. :)
what does it feel like, for you, when you notice you’ve started using the foam as a lens instead of working in it? Is that a thing you can feel?
yes and I design for this by switching back and forth all the time. my physical body doesn’t admit a foam-based interface. my physical health/integration is a literal reflection of my cognitive hygiene on this. :D
it’s an answer I feel good about, obviously, but I’m holding it lightly - does it hold, from where you’re standing? any honest answer is useful
