There are 3 ways to respond to this contradiction: 1. Be very upset about it and spend a lot of effort trying to resolve all the contradictions. Make a Grand Unified System. Be depressed when this turns out to be hard or impossible. Chapman would call this "stuck at Kegan 4".

2b. Chapman calls 4.5 the variant on this where you decide to go the way of e.g. critical legal theory and decide "the system is just a tool for my ends, rules aren't important at all" is right and proper.

It would, if you were trying to rigorously systematize your "but how do I choose the system?" But if you refer back to my "programmer deciding which language to start a new project in", you can see how that's not necessary or even very useful.
