Abstraction is necessary for comprehension. Otherwise, language and thought would not be "NL-Complete", by which I mean, it would therefore not be able to describe everything out of infinite possibilities. A language may (and must) have a finite number of words; this makes it difficult to represent something that takes many words, but not impossible given and infinite amount of time, because of the structure and basis. Thought is more so. Both are based upon associations, and abstractions are associations that stand in as interpreters between two disparate sections of the individual MindSpace in order to mediate to make infinite cognition possible, like a temporary variable in some logoassociative bytecode compiler. |
