dado...you would likely enjoy reading Dr. Senge...."on systems thinking"
Chapter 8.." The art of seeing the forest AND the trees". BTW, Systems thinking is either a blessing or a curse, as I think you would recognize. I pray we are right.

"Systems thinking finds it's greatest benefits in helping us distinguish high-from low-leverage changes in highly complex situations. In effect, the art of systems thinking lies in seeing throughcomplexity to the underlying structures generating change. Systems thinking does not mean ignoring complexity. Rather, it means organizing complexity into a coherent story that illuminates the causes of problems and how they can be remedied in enduring ways."

I claim Dr.M. sees Homeostasis as a system level CNS solution while it seems the rest of BP has not seen that and now is basically really screwed. BP has massively invested in indication specifics which has limited their view of the forest...when they step back they just see a lot of trees. They pick their favorite tree and have missed the forest. Dr. M. (and yourself perhaps) sees both the forest and the trees.
