Conflation(as the logical error the Tiantai argument makes): Mistakenly treating two different things as if they were the same thing.
Wolffian tradition(historical philosophical movement): A school of philosophical thought based on Christian Wolff, an 18th-century German philosopher who developed a systematic approach to understanding reality through reason and logic.
categorical departure(philosophical methodology): A fundamental or complete break from an established way of thinking—not just a small change, but a shift to a different category altogether.
inversion of the perceiver-object relation(epistemology (how we know things)): A flip in how we understand the relationship between a person observing something and the thing being observed—instead of the object being separate and independent, the perceiver's role becomes central or reversed.
