fun stuff, i enjoy the back and forth. “I’m arguing the opposite” I know. Your film metaphor is epistemic, not ontological. How we know, not how being-as-such comes into existence. Act has to have primacy to potency: continuous to discrete yes, you are arguing the opposite which means that position runs into one of two impasse: infinite regress or something from nothing. those impasses stand invincible, which is why potency is a product of act. why the discrete part is a product of continuous whole.
