why is projection a thing?

Replying to
Intrapersonal emotional judo.
Like most things in dissonance/dissociation, it's a case of direct processing causing intolerable discomfort.
Emotional bodies are pretty evidently modular in some sense (as in 'composed of different parts', not 'easily altered').
Projection is a form of dissociative technique. Displacement of processing for emotional problem areas.
