== Usage notes ==

This is one of many cases of philosophers repeatedly trying to describe the same concepts with multiple different terms, made worse by philosophers then landing their inconsistent descriptions of different concepts onto the same term.

=== Sense "plurality" vs sense "spacetime" ===

Between Bergson and Deleuze, there is a subtle problem that forms between attempting to characterize events as <i>multiplicities</i> of objects versus as <i>multiplicities</i> of connected instants of time. These are very different concepts that both end up using the same word simply because there are several (<i>multiple</i>) of each thing. Somehow, neither author appears to think of the concept of [[Term:relativity|relativity]] and realize that it is also possible for every separate object in the multiplicity of objects to undergo a multiplicity of times. This is a critical realization because it means that Bergon's multiplicity of times may be an illusion — should there be two people Henry and Felix each experiencing a multiplicity of times, they would not be experiencing any of the <em>same</em> times, but rather one would be experiencing Henry-seconds and one would be experiencing Felix-seconds, and the Henry-seconds would only become Felix-seconds or vice versa inasmuch as the two people are or are not able to interact with each other. This should cast immediate doubt on any and all [[E:Q42|existentialist]] attempts to transform time into something that can only be "experienced", given that in most situations Henry fundamentally cannot even know what a Felix-second <em>is</em> nor Felix know what a Henry-second is. Their individual experiences are inaccessible to each other, so it cannot be said Bergson-style that Henry-seconds are <em>more intuitive</em> to Felix than an objective lens describing relativity as it occurs for all perspectives when Felix will never intuitively know what a Henry-second is in the first place.
