     @freemo The shifting POV in your words is a fresh twist -- a potentially useful restatement with consequences we cannot parse easily.

     Rough translation?
     Conditioning also
     conditions the
     conditioner = hoc mutat

     intervenor

     When I read your words, my knee-jerk reaction was in Latin -- thinking about ways in which your words suggest new insight into a couple of Latin

     1. Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
     • Who will guard the guards themselves?
     • Who watches the watchers? • Who will watch the watchmen?

     2. Qui tacet consentire videtur
     • He who is silent is taken to agree
     • Silence implies/means consent
