However, given that two or more actions can extensionally overlap without thereby being mutually unperformable, if such actions are specified in the relevant rights, then those rights will not be incompossible , notwithstanding their extensional overlap.

These theories of dynamic becomings invite us to joyfully travel along ' incompossible lines of time' where the human is not necessarily the maker of history and the future, and might not even have a place in it.

More importantly it invites questions about what is incompossible by virtue of such causal interaction.

In particular, one can use the dot-notation introduced in section 6 to express a version of the claim that incompossible objects form a set:

The result is that we find ourselves holding beliefs which are individually plausible but mutually incompossible . Such cognitive dissonance constitutes an apory.

The mixing together of things that are incompossible cannot be stopped.
