You guys all seem to be missing the difference between the value of reducing
your solutio

Reductionism has its place in the analytical phase at equilibrium. Analysis
is normally a study of integrable, often linear systems,
eady is familiar with the book's
discussion on formal analysis in art).

on non-linear, feed-forward systems as well.
