A cloud is a cell, is made up of similar cells. This fact is extremely valuable since it allows you to reduce complicity to this simplified level. You can understand what any theory is really pointing to if you can apply this. Cooperation within layers is misleading since individual arguments are worked out to achieve a current of matter in motion or a common direction, but opposition still exists at differing levels between both, similar objects, and layers. Ultimately, directional change is the one and only real trick here.
Mass equilibrium is futile since the apparent neutrality within layers only makes for new layers.
Opposition and cooperation occurs both internally and externally between objects as well as layers, but again, the difference between a layer and an object is totally relative to your perspective. The meaning of life, as well as death, you might say. Nature's theory is a truly unified theory that knows no boundaries of specialization. It crosses all lines and reaches right into the soul of understanding. Specialists have great difficulty with that claiming that it isn't pure physics or whatever, but it can be if you want to limit what you say, and by that, unfortunately, also what others will understand.
