@Carleas I agree with your 1-3. 
I ran across a quote from Confucius today that says it is only the very wise and the very stupid who cannot change. The most wise (the Virtuoso) doesn’t need to incorporate new experienced feelings into their reframing—nothing sneaks past, because they don’t even need to reframe, because they already have the correct frame (others may still think the wise need to change because they—the other-than-wise—do not have the correct frame), whereas the stupidest (perhaps wise in their own eyes, but unwise in reality) don’t even see they need to change. The stupidest may consider progress what the wisest consider a (futile attempt at) destroying what ought be conserved/chosen…flowed/vibed with.
