No, plot and CM are considered to have no default order of what is more abstract than the other. That doesn't mean we consider them able to affect each other by default or that they in general are not more abstract than each other. It means that we by default don't know how the interaction works out, which is why we would need to look in detail of how the nature of these things compare to stuff in the verse.Plot and CM are the accepted to be of the same importance now.
To quote:
So yeah, if you want to claim that your concepts can ignore Kawakamiverse plot, then you need to put forth an argument on why it would equalize as such. See at the bottom below.There is no default order to metaphysical aspects, meaning that if we have no additional information from the fiction a power comes from, we can not decide whether or not the ability to manipulate one aspect would be able to influence, overcome or be affected by another. For example, per default plot manipulation would not be able to manipulate concepts, but concept erasure can't necessarily be used to erase the plot either. In a vs-debate a clash between such powers may have an indeterminate outcome, unless at least one of the fictions involved clarifies how the interaction between the metaphysical aspects works.
When have I implied that she creates 7 layers of CM1? I said her plot manip based defense will activate against the power as she can imagine the existence of such powers.Isn't this just NLF???
There aren't and never was 7 layers cm type 1 in that verse, and now there is because she imagined it?
Again, you don't need to have seen a thing to be able to imagine the existence of it nor does the thing even need to actually exist to be imagined.
Well, thanks of pointing me to the right reading material. As said, I just went by what I got from reading the CM section on his page. No need to get so defensive~Underline Metaphysics [Layers of Laws]
The more metaphysical nature of reality is fundamentally made up of laws layered over each other in such a way that the lower laws serve as the supports for the higher laws yet are still superseded by them, the lowest level consists of the worlds physical laws, essentially physics as a whole [The Baseline], superseded by the particular metaphysics related to a worlds built in energy system which break, bend and overrule said physical laws, to an admittedly limited degree [The First Layer], while beyond that are laws or changes enacted through the will of an ascended being [The Second Layer][13]. There are more layers of superiority that go beyond just what was outlined prior [Two Layers] which are inherently built into the any interactions between the abilities of ascended beings because when two principles that already outrank physical laws come in contact with each other the superior one will overwrite the lesser one by virtue of outrank it similarly to how they already outrank physical laws, furthering the layers of laws, so all ascended beings inherently have [Two Layers] above baseline abilities[14].
An Iterations innate power systems are fundamentally just aspects of it's inherent metaphysics[15] which function in a manner that isn't directly tied to the Way in the sense that they actively draw from the Way in it's purest form[16] but are still shaped by it's concept, specifically whatever Icons it is more attuned to[14].
Iteration 110 [Cradle]
In Cradle, Dreadgods exist in a state of being fundamentally part of the world's rules, substance, it's very fabric[15] as a result of being tied to an unnatural variation of one of the iterations energy systems known as Aura, in particular Hunger Aura, showing clearly that a world's energy system is inherently built into it's fabric[17]. Aura as a whole is one unified force, simply the soul of the world[18] and a manifestation of it's power[19] that creates and accumulates alongside the physical processes of the world[20] including phenomena that are inherently intangible and conceptual like death or destruction[21] such that aura can form multiple dualities like air and earth, heat and cold even life and death[22].
And Lindon is already on second layer, Icon is already above laws. Read the cosmology before writing that.
Icons [Archetypal Concepts]
Icons are archetypal[65] greater concepts of reality[66] which are fundamentally intrinsic to all of reality[67] because they serve as the single template for all things they represent[68] to such a degree that alterations to them change all of reality itself [Conceptual Manipulation] and Icons have complimentary halves, opposites, which are present alongside them to form a duality[69]. These concepts are sourced and empowered by the Way[70], the fundamental basis for all of existence[63], which exists deeper than[55] and completely separate from reality[71] such that Icons themselves exist beyond the world[72] and the manifestation of their power is "projected from beyond reality"[73].
The Void is the endless pure lack of existence[86] said to be beyond existence[87] that resides outside the Way itself[88] surrounding it[39] while similarly being beyond additional depth as space peels away from like a wallpaper revealing the "deeper hole" that is the Void[6] beyond all directions of space[54], reality[55] and time[7][8]. The Void constitutes a pure nonexistence[89] and endless chaos[90] which causes the break down the Ways influence wherever it finds a foothold[86].
Nonexistence and Annihilation
As a force of nonexistence and annihilation[89] outside the influence of Way[88] the Void naturally lacks the various metaphysical properties it provides such as Icons as a whole[70] including the Void Icon which is the concept of nonexistence itself[70] and it's counterpart which is the concept of existence[69] [Nonexistent Physiology: Nature 2 - Aspects 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5], causality which is absent from anything erased from the Way[91], laws which are erased from within it[90], Physics which it inherently lacks[34], Logic which it also inherently lacks[90], Fate is separate from it[19][88] and it would naturally reside outside the Ways metaphysical record storage system which stores fundamental information[70].
Anyway, from reading the above I can see how they would equalize about to a Owari no Chronicle concept user due to similar mechanics. So unless plot manip is a thing in his verse, I guess we go with Kawakami-verse logic for equalization of metaphysical aspects. In which case the Icon stuff can bypass her defense, provided he uses it directly on her.
Although, is his concept passive truly passive (always on throughout the story, not just an activatable aura) and, if it is, does it have 4km range while passive? Being a walking cloud of death to everything around you, never able to approach anyone else they get erased, seems.... detrimental.
