Hi Ian,
Of course "probability field" is a great metaphor. Not only does it
allow for the variance in affordances offered by the MOQ's levels,
but within that level we see that the "probability" of an outcome
nears 100% as the time index approaches "the present moment" but
diminishes the further one moves into the "future". It also
contextualizes "free", as our behavior is certainly constrained on
various levels (no matter how non-deterministic I want to say the
cosmos is, I am not "free" to morph into an eagle).
