Since then I have wavered back and forth between thinking the idea is revolutionary and thinking the idea is utterly mundane, depending on whether I was free associating and unifying more areas of past knowledge with this same concept, or else noticing all the ideas were old without any striking new implications. At the moment I am simply enjoying the chance to mine a rich vein of questions and conjectures related to all the topics that feel more unified as a result of applying this perspective. And I look forward to staving off boredom for a long while by considering many more of the ramifications that come to mind when thinking of applications. The only clear advantage I can see so far in using hypoknots as a design pattern is the ability to use the same reasoning for similar problems in very widely separated contexts, since the mathematical basis permits one to ignore some domain specific aspects in usage.
