the implication being that "horseshoe" is inadequate, and that a more complete picture contains an infinite or near-infinite number of possible paths, each of which begins from a single point and terminates at a single other point, there effectively then being only one defining coordinate of self-awareness, the convergence at that far point representing its perfect lack, a point in this defined space of personhood where the second, orthogonal coordinate of personal freedom to self-actualise is reduced to its infinitely small limit and ceases at all to exist, a point which the even the two subjects above, near as far apart as possible in that second, orthogonal coordinate as is possible, are still near enough to to approach and understand one another well, or at least to mirror one another, given the lack of awareness and its inhibition of such understanding
