The equivalence between those two statements seems to fall apart in the case of a remote “you”, because we can meaningfully distinguish between your abstract intent and various physical impulses I’m not sure we can in the locally physical model — eg, mixing of your “true” signal with a secondary one because the addiction structure adjusts your tuning; addiction would then be your body no longer accurately carrying out your will, which is distinct from you wanting them.
