We both know we can know anything we learn, but it will be superficial in ultimate terms. We do not have to use instinct either. Yet, if everything is, then anything or somethings are fine is the way. Everything can be experienced in any way. It is not redundant because everything is, including conscious separation.
Nothing necessarily means anything.
Neither of us can be right or wrong. It can be seen in any number of ways. All words can have infinite meanings. It is separation. It is stereotyping.
