How about: can't you see this isn't going anywhere? Bruno is repeating
himself, while you enjoy, as the only one here, your own rhetoric
variations, repeating the same content and biases over and over in
linguistic strings, with only minor differences in use of metaphor and
empty, albeit sometimes amusing expressions and figures of speech, that
don't constitute a serious argument or proposal of ontology framing your
ideas on "sense".

Your zeal in seeking validation from Bruno by presenting yourself "as his
equal confronting him", mirrors perhaps the doubt you have concerning your
own thoughts, which is good indication of your intention to seek and test,
because why else would you seek this validation?

Then again, we are all each other's equals, so why force this with monster
discussions of details of details, when we know the outcome: you will not
consider comp as possibility or example and improvise linguistic tricks for
the problems that come up in the edifice of your work on logical and
mathematical levels, by putting aesthetics on a pedestal, which is also
unconvincing as of today.

Instead of taking the problems, criticisms arising here as some personal
thing, take what you can learn or leave it; your work needs to overcome its
limits and problems, and you won't get it done by forcing anybody here,
including Bruno, to spoon feed you.
