I made a comment when that post first came out that I thought this was missing the mark on what contextualizing is actually trying to get at (in particular, focusing on language meanings rather than the consequences of language use). I think this whole sequence by Zach is at it’s best when it focuses on the upsides of decoupling, and at it’s worst when it tries to explain contextualizing, and would like to see a review that covers both those strengths and weaknesses.
