But if there's just a few humans, the only integral ideas are the ideas integral
to them, right? Unless there's an overarching ideal to which the IC aspires.
Which I had not thought of, but I guess is assumed. I had not really thought of
the IC having any more idea of their role in the big picture than we have in
ours. In terms of the spectrum offered in Statosphere, I think of them being on
the "more human" end, as opposed to the "pure idea" end. I guess ultimately I
don't think there are any essential parts of who we are as humans. I'm exceeding
my own threshold for cosmic contemplation, but I'm curious how folks see
interactions between the members of the IC.
