The only clear limit on Calix I can see is that it didn't let the user do what would otherwise be impossible, but if you're a hardcore fatalist, doesn't that mean it doesn't really do anything? Or even if there were multiple possibilities (from which, the Calix let you "choose"), how would you prove those possibilities really exist if you don't actualize them? I would hope it's not secretly just a mask of encouragement.
If you could actually see all of the options though, you could probably use it as an information gathering tool. Maybe consider asking someone their favorite color, but then opt not to do so after observing their would-be answer. The kind of prediction power that would grant you would probw the existence of possibilities by the empirical standard, at least. But for it to be that strong would make it as strong as the mask of accuracy, easily. Maybe one of them works within epistemic possiblity, and the other within metaphysical (Calix doesn't work while blindfolded)?
The Komau is also opening up a lot of weird philosophical inquiry. It sounds weird to say that it can only "brainwash" people to do things they'd do of their own free will, but the distinction seems analogous to the difference between "persuasive art" and more literal brainwashing. Even if you can see these options as distinct sets though, how do you privelage one over the other? On what grounds can someone say "My Komau has the good, free set of possibilities, and Makuta's badstuff is the bad set of possibilities?" Maybe it's purely a practical choice?
>>7797648I always figured it let you use multiple at once instead of having to switch.
