Before you've worked out that it's okay to add any quantity to a balanced occasion, it's okay to just notice that it's okay to add 2 specifically to any balanced occasion - that's a legitimate step towards starting to put the pieces together."
Require (Z-generalized): All objects with trait-1 have trait-2.
Require (H-generalized): All objects with trait-2 have trait-3.
Conclude (Q-generalized): All objects with trait-1 have trait-3.
"When you build an entity with a rule in its mind that looks for a case where it believes any instance of Z-generalized and H-generalized, and concludes Q-generalized, you're building an entity that's operating a much broader necessary truth than the very narrow universal truth that connects 'If all triangles are red and all red things are large, then all triangles are large.' You might be able to build a few dozen fairly general rules like that into a mind, and have given it a large and useful shard of the Law that connects premises and conclusions, instead of just a very narrow guideline about shapes and sizes in particular."
"Does anyone want to try naming another candidate for a belief-manipulating rule like that?"
