Great term. Can I plagiarize it?

I guess one co=ld say that a lion and a gazelle have competing powers, but it somehow see=s misleading. All living systems? How about Valeria and I furn=shing our apartment together (I became an expert on rugs)? Or Morris=and I writing a book together?

Thinking about it. Keep realizing tha= I'm not Hilbert, and linguistics isn't 20th century math. T=e exciting problems I can think of are either too far from current underst=nding, or too theory-internal for the general significance to be easily pe=ceived.
