On another note Arthur Schopenhauer wrote "You can do what you will but you cannot will what you will."
I would probably run with an insight that took some time. You can say something like there is such a thing as conservation of potential. For instance, I don't think Lex Fridman would agree that "Omniconscience" is a correct designation for Vlad's office. So what is the conservation of potential? A complex relation to omniscience. There is no problem in theory with any hypothesis. The problem is specifically the designation of a sort of categorical question. In what case is something not imperative? You're trying to observe something from the standpoint of equality. Most questions agree with the designation of a language-game. Ludwig Wittgenstein makes an interesting simplification when he says that language is the bound for the world. 'World' is a term deliberately resistant to qualification as either ambiguous or vague.
