So Craig, Steve, ... that SOMist discrepancy (problem) between
concepts and SOMist reality, that inevitable, (fundamental)
relationship between the static and dynamic, so hard to define in
SOMism, is recast by MoQism as a reality more fundamental than SOmist
reality.

At the risk of being crass, we change the name for this thing bad
(problem / discrepancy) to good (quality / fundamental reality) and
get on with living quality. Are we nearly there yet ?
