Question about Conceptual Manipulation 1

, manipualting Root means Manipulating that 1 person.
My knowledge on MGK only extends to the anime, but assuming everything you said is true, the part I have highlighted above is biggest problem.

Type 1 conceptual manipulation affects every application of the concept it pertains to. If ya take a look at the example,
For example, a circular object is circular because it is "participating" in the concept of "circle-ness". In this way, the alteration of these concepts will change every object of the concept across all of their area of influence
Notice how manipulating the concept of “Circleness” would effect every circle in existence.

In your case, if manipulating the concept of roots had referred to manipulating every root in existence, that would be a better argument for type 1. Again no clue on the context of the verse tho.

My bad i realize that it's conceptual type 3 when i read in the conceptual manipulation blog

I don't think root(source) has to govern every other source for CM type 1. It just have to govern every aspect of what it governs and also be independent from what it governs, Which root(source) can do.

The source isn't the concept of the source. Y'all apparently don't know how CM works
 
A concept's sphere of influence is defined as what it governs. The source doesn't govern sources, it governs an individuals life.

Oml you’re right, reading over it again it sounds dumb. Idk why I wrote that, wasn’t thinking straight. In any case, why was it removed then?.

Source was never type 1 in the profile. It was type 2 in the old profile and it was removed because some people thought (including staff) that for having CM type 2 and 1 one has to effect the whole of all reality.
