The answer to the p/np question is found in the negation of time, where p = np, simply because in time-free immateriality equivalence is the ground state*
This is perhaps unconvincing to materialists**, because it’s clear a structure** exists that supports the apparent distinction.
(when an answer is validated through a particular lens, check another lens to see if its validity remains)
*to borrow a materialist^ term…in actuality it’s ungrounded (in our materialist epoch most struggle to appreciate that concept, so ground gets as close to it as I can bring them)
**it is not the goal to convince materialists, nor is it the goal to react or respond to any specific group or claim. like most things, materialism is not not true. That is: there is a way of seeing the world through a materialist lens that has validity. It is not The Truth, nor is it a falsehood.
It is both an illusion - for those who believe there is a non-illusory state beyond or behind the illusion - and not an illusion.
***All structure is self-generating, and self-sustaining; all structure is emergent (genuinely de novo).
(most materialists take this for granted…not recognizing the logic of self generation that thanklessly support their materialist claims)
(It is not not geometry, it is best represented geometrically.)
^a materialist is one who refuses engagement with metaphysics
(I understand that some like reichenbach have tried (and perhaps believe they’ve succeeded))
and takes the phenomenal world as perceived, without addressing where, why, when, how such a world is generated, axiom free.
