A composition of personal [[hierarchies]] yields a social [[heterarchy]]. + - The social context afforded by an Agora provides a path towards faster eventual convergence (that is, `K` people contributing to `N` nodes as categorized using loose or implicit personal ontologies can converge on useful emergent categories as `K` increases, at low individual effort). + - Going from a set of voice-preserving [[individual contributions]] to a shared [[group resource]] might be an efficient way to foster opportunistic collaboration at scale. \ No newline at end of file
