the scale diffs are so tremendous — you can’t consider it even close to Dominos.

What contributions do the grains at the bottom of a river have to the flow of the water on top?
Almost none except for the place where they interact
—
Yes they can interact but practically speaking you could replace the grains of sand at the bottom of the river with plastic and we do when we make pipes
And believe it or not it’s the overall shape that makes more of a difference than the individual grains as a whole
The domino effect argument is flat
—
I absolutely love the butterfly effect and the way little things can make a big difference but the thing is I also know that these effects generally do have limited ranges as a whole
There’s limitations to energies in most systems

What makes compatiblist work for me
Is precisely this river water flow versus grains of sand
The water is contained in a container Yes.
But within that container it has freedom of motion
What is that container made out of?
It almost doesn’t matter
What makes a difference between “absolutely doesn’t matter” versus “almost” is interesting in itself
Nevertheless, for the same reasons Newtonian laws work for most things, the coarse view of free will also works for most things.
Both overstating quantum physics for the massive and overstating the influence of microtubules or something is an error based on scale as it completely ignores the massive massive massive differences quantities and groupings and the overall smearing effect that happens when two different types meet up and there’s a surface of sorts
