Reason, Oneness, Firstness

The distinction between Totalizing Reason and Distributive Reason is derived from that between Oneness and Firstness, respectively.  For, the constraint of inconsistent behavior, required by Totalizing Reason, is based on the Parmenidean ideal of changeless unity, while the setting of an example, prompted by Distributive Reason, is an expression of the source of dynamic universal creativity.  Thus, the inherent productiveness of Firstness exposes the inadequacy of Totalizing Reason as 'Practical', i. e. exposes it as a Theoretical principle applied to Practice.  Furthermore, that Firstness, at minimum, presents an alternative to Oneness, exposes the undefended subscription, e. g. Kant's, to the latter as arbitrary, so the Reason that is derived from Oneness is not necessarily 'Pure'.  In contrast, the priority of Ordinal Numerality over Cardinal Numerality, previously argued for here, applies to that of Firstness over Oneness, e. g. Oneness, like Cardinality, lacks the very concept of Priority that such an argument entails.
