If meaning in social practices is grounded in community agreement and training rather than inter-subjective negotiation, perspective-taking is a post-hoc rationalization of an already-functioning normative order.

grounded in(whether distinctness or identity is explained by intrinsic features)
To be explained by or to have its reason or basis in something else—like how a tree being wet is grounded in (explained by) recent rain.
inter-subjective negotiation(contrasted as an alternative source of meaning)
Back-and-forth communication between individuals where they actively work out and agree on what something means together, in the moment.
meaning in social practices(as the subject being analyzed)
The shared understanding of what actions, words, or rituals are supposed to do or represent within a group—like how a handshake means 'greeting' because everyone in your culture agrees it does.
training(another source of meaning alongside community agreement)
The process of learning to behave or think in certain ways through repeated practice and habituation, often without being explicitly taught the underlying rules.
