228.00 Scenario Principle

228.01 Definition: The scenario principle discloses that the Universe of total man experience may not be simultaneously recollected and reconsidered, but may be progressively subdivided into a plurality of locally tunable event foci or “points,” of which a minimum of four positive and four negative are required as a “considerable set,” that is, as the first finite subdivision of finite Universe.

1. Considerable Set: All experience is reduced to nonsimultaneously “considerable sets”; irrelevant to consideration are all those experiences that are either too large and therefore too infrequent, or too minuscule and therefore too frequent, to be tunably considerable as pertaining to the residual constellation of approximately congruent recollections of experiences.

2. A “considerable set” inherently subdivides all the rest of irrelevant experiences of Universe into macrocosmic and microcosmic sets immediately outside or immediately inside the considered set of experience foci.

228.12 Scenario Principle: Considerable Set: In considering all experiences, the mistakes of the past and the anticipations of the future are metaphysically irrelevant. We do not have to be preoccupied with hypothetical or potential experiences because we are always living in the now. Living in the present tense obviates impatience. (See Sec. 529.11.)
