    IM type = your little contribution to understanding the consequences of what's happening
    Alright, this is much more clear.

    An ILI at rest tends to remain at rest
    and an ILI in motion is probably not an ILI

    Right. You see in the sphere of every EM-DCNH combination (and hence every field of interest), you have representatives of each IM type pointing out how the activity of the field is affecting their respective base elements. Just as you have, 16 type-based perspectives on sports. Then you look a little further, at the political level, and you find another 16 for every type, or even 32 if you care to look that close.

    Everyone is doing their part for our collective psychological wholeness and wellness; i.e. the metanarrative phrase created by our technology, culture, and environment. The more variation you have, the more balanced the mentality of the culture is likely to be. (not counting uncontrollable external pressures which can turn power towards one personality or another, which is how dictators arise in democratic environments).
