Thinking of it as "serialization" is at the heart of the conversational
disaster. If you figure out why, then maybe this conversation can
continue more fruitfully.

You seem to expect enlightenment to arrive on your terms and in your
language. In my experience, there is no subtlety to these distinctions

distinction"), which makes it pretty much impossible to explain what's
happening.
You also seem to want answers where there are none.
