If iterability — the condition that makes signs repeatable — is what enables meaning at all, then 'genuine creation' is not a separate act but an effect of the differential system it claims to transcend.

Differential system(as used in structuralist and post-structuralist philosophy): A network where things get their meaning not from what they are in themselves, but from how they differ from other things in the network. Like how the letter 'b' means something different from 'd' only because they're different shapes.
Genuine creation(as used in metaphysics and aesthetics): The idea that something completely new and original can be made, something that isn't just a rearrangement of existing things.
Iterability(as used in philosophy of language and semiotics): The quality of being able to repeat or copy something over and over. In this context, it means signs (like words or symbols) can be used again and again while still carrying meaning.
Transcend(metaphysics and ethics): Go beyond or rise above something; in this case, moral principles that exist independent of human-made rules.
