[Does the potential that underlies my choice1b virtually emerge from and situate the possibilities inherent in me1a?

Does value1b virtually emerge from and situate desire1a?

Let me walk through this.

The first step is to look at the content-level nested form.

A thought experiment3a brings something (revealing desire)2a into relation with the possibilities inherent in me (corresponding to desire)1a.

The second step is goes with the situation level.

I decide3b about this something2a.]

[The two nested forms may either interscope or intersect.

They interscope according to the previous diagram.

I, seat of choice3 belongs to a higher category.

Why?

It virtually situates the thought experiment3-lower level.

In other words, a possibility inherent in something (revealing my desire)2, lower level offers the opportunity for ‘I3, higher level’ to make ‘a choice2, higher level’.

The two levels, for sensible construction, are situation and content.]

[The actualities of something2a and my choice2b are readily apparent to others.

My choice2b virtually emerges from and situates my desire2a.

So let me write these two nested forms out explicitly.

I, seat of choice3b( my choice2b( something corresponding to value1b))

Thought experiment3a( something corresponding to desire2a( me1a))]
