This is long and talks about many things. Some of them I agree with. Some of them are dead wrong. The idea that "there is no such thing as "qualitative" observation" is just wrong. Qualitative interpretation of the world is how our bodies works. There is a way to quantify this quality, but it took millions of years to figure out how to do this, and still, almost no one is any good at it. That doesn't mean it's not a very powerful way to think about things, and learning to do it has given those who can it the power to do things like pollute the Earth with plastics and order institutions so they can produce the most money. But it's not the way that people's bodies sense the world around them. I will return later with more to say.

Very clear examples. Thanks!
