good to hear from you again saz
& a belated welcome

i am not sure i see or follow all your reasoning here
but i do emphatically agree that a boundary line is a thought form

& that in itself is an enormous contribution toward truth imo

but because thought really exists
this thought boundary line is in fact a real existing one

& that is where we seem to begin to diverge


but further
in reality
one persons real existing thought boundary line may be different
from someone elses & probably will be

& also
it appears to be impossible to measure accurately & objectively
the distance of a thought form per se
unless that distance is specified in the thought itself

like happily if you say your thought oktx is say 1000 miles long
well then voila & ipso facto it really is 1000 miles long
& it has thereby been accurately measured


but objective statutory oktx itself is a thought form too
defined as it happens not by distance but only by positions
some of them fixed but some actually variable & approximate

& you apparently think you can just go find all the points &
measure the full distance between them that this peculiarly
defined statutory thought form objectively travels or
comprehends
from point to point to point to point etc
once & for all

but it seems to me that the thought form you are really defining &
measuring in such a valiant try
even if you pull it off by pulling it apart
as you say
is still only your own subjective thought form

the objective oktx still seems to me to be largely unknowable
geopositionally
& therefore fundamentally unmeasurable

estimable perhaps
tho always more or less fudged by subjective fantasy
& ever slipping away into infinitude
but measurable not

matter. What matters is how long this thought line is. If it follows
e. g. the middle (center) line of a river, it's bend like the river flows
its way down. All this bendings prolong the boundary line. If, for
example, the river dries out or is led into another direction, the
boundary line still will exist according its original definition there
where the center line of the river was.

a thought line with many bows and curves following the Red
River line. Thus, if "pulled" apart, it will be a longer line than the
CANV boundary that runs mostly in two straight lines.
