Cancer as Cognitive Defectionclaim0.924
Cancer results from defection from large-scale anatomical goals due to reduction of gap junctional connectivity, causing cells to revert to unicellular concerns
Cancer as Defection from Multicellular Selfconcept0.778
The model that cancer results from cells shrinking their computational boundaries (closing gap junctions) and reverting to unicellular goals.
Cancer is a pathology of the cognitive light cone — cells shrink their self-model to a tiny radius, defecting from the collective body and treating the rest of the body as the external environment.claim0.763

Cancer can be understood as a dissociative identity disorder of the morphological collective intelligence.claim0.760
Provocative reinterpretation of cancer as a failure mode of collective decision-making.
Cancer is a breakdown of the collective intelligence of tissues, a shrinking of the Self boundary due to gap junction closure.claim0.742
Frames metastasis as cells reverting to unicellular goals, treatable by restoring bioelectric connectivity.
Cancer as shrinking of the Selfconcept0.741
Cancer is interpreted as cells reverting to unicellular selfishness due to loss of gap junctional coupling, shrinking their cognitive boundary.
