I’m leaving this as an unsupported idea because it’s not the point of this book. I here merely intend to prevent readers from misinterpreting me in a particularly tempting way. Note also that this footnote itself is an example of two of the problems with long-form thought discussed in Chapter 6: anticipating imagined objections and keeping readers on the bus rather than exploring interesting side roads. (That side road would have argued that thought emerges from flesh, an is not a purely formal process. Iinterested readers should go out on the Net to explore the concept of embodied thought.)
