certain abstract phenomena are accessible only through direct, individual encounter. Multiple people can authentically experience the same underlying reality, but these experiences fundamentally resist collective synthesis - not from subjective interpretation, but because the phenomenon's nature precludes shared understanding.
Declining crude oil EROI creates persistent inflationary pressure across all currencies. As energy extraction costs approach energy yield, the real resource base supporting monetary claims shrinks, establishing an unavoidable inflationary floor that monetary mechanisms cannot eliminate - only temporarily offset.
you could tell the Romans everything we know and it would still take about the same time to get back to where we are now. technology forms irreducible dependency graphs - advanced tools require prerequisite manufacturing capabilities, refined materials need processing infrastructure, and synthesis methods must be built sequentially. Even with complete knowledge transfer, material constraints and manufacturing prerequisites create unavoidable temporal bottlenecks that resist acceleration.
