It seems, to those who pay attention, that you are spot on Nancy, about those “general” dancing rules !
Simply too many “papers”, too many “experiments”, too many “amazing results” were either done or achieved - around those “parameters” - and are still, by several “mainstream” teams of researchers of very diversified fields, for anybody, except the usual crowd of nay sayers or St. Thomases, to dismiss, and not be “aware”, that what you claim may, in factual fact, be possible.
It now remains to be seen, to be presented and understood, the “specific” and practical results of yours and John’s work.
More the reason for those of knowledge, or with thirst of it, to participate and try to understand what you are doing ! Not to sit on side benches, eating peanuts and waiting for whatever it is they are waiting !
That is my take, as a “plain Joe”, seeing all of this.
Scratch that … I “was” a plain Joe. Have meanwhile gone too far down the Rabbit Hole to still “look” at myself like that. I now “recognize” in me a guy who has by now known enough to realize he knows shite !
But there many out there who still haven’t. Who “remain” plain, unsuspecting Joes.
And they are Legion.
