Authority pointers. For stalactite, see Stalactite. For the deposit, see Fallout. For the just reflex, see The Thing With No Word. For language is autocatalytic, see Fallout. For vertigo/fear/furniture arc, see Before It Becomes Furniture. For conversational decompression, see Hot Tokens. For the Accurate Dictionary (named here), see Grace Compounds. For discernment as intent-checking immune system, see Vision, Will, and Discernment. For the bootstrapping fallacy (blaming individual for systemic condition), see Let the Right One In. For language as tool deposited at the crossing between encoding and cognition, see Loops.
