You are reading a reconstruction. A reconstruction is best read in conjunction with the reconstructed content.

Quick reading guide: when you see “<this>⁠DEF”, this means a new concept (DEF = definition) that will be re-used later. It’s important to remember the definition in its context (i.e., the context is the phrase that contains the definition).

Then, if you see “<this>” (without DEF), this means a reference to the original definition. You have to remember this keep in mind the definition (and its context) while reading the reference. To help you remember, you can click on it, and the browser will take you back to the original definition and highlight it.

The goal of the reconstruction is to make you see objective content differently, using just a wider attention span and sensory memory. If you don’t make the effort to memorize or at least follow the hyperlinking to refresh your memory, the reconstruction won’t mean much.

Spoiler note: we advocate a “spoilers don’t matter” stance. Read more about it.
