Sometimes it seems in your writing "meta-systematicity" & "fluidity" are somewhat interchangeable, but sometimes not. Wondering if the distinction includes something like "in a fluid society, kids would grow up in fluid mode the whole time but still need to learn systems"?

Hmm, no, I don’t think so. Growing up in modernity didn’t make everyone systematic.

Every time I read one of your snippets I think “this could have been so much more fun if he’d flipped the coordinate system upside down on day 1 and used the sub- or infra- prefixes”

Unfortunately, I’m just not very much fun, as anyone who knows me well can confirm

One question I've had for a while: is metasystematicity a single skill you develop once and forever? Or do you need to achieve it anew in different domains?
-
I read “in over our heads” a couple months ago and it pretty strongly suggests you need to achieve it in different domains (but once you solve it in one it becomes a lot easier in others)

What is the deep driver of that meta-systematic understanding? What drives neural organization so that one can make the various leaps? Empathetic connection and development. Check out Matt Lieberman's book, 'Social'. Evolution vs. Sophistication also matters.pic.twitter.com/PVyMPG1Ggf

BTW -- this chart is mine, not Matt's.

HGSE has a few researchers looking at second language acquisition like a second system. Language is probably a different system than you envision here, but they are finding interesting later-in-life cognitive benefits to bilingualism...
