Yes. In fact, the original use of "sol'n" was pure habit, and the habitus stuff is just a post-hoc way to (a) rationalise why I used it, and (b) introduce something I recently found interesting[0]. But it is a gang sign, of sorts — instead of throwing "westside" or some similar geographic allegiance[1], it's declaring (an actual, or a desired?) membership with that gang of people who care about systems, existence and uniqueness of sol'ns, and the distinction between general and particular sol'ns. Are we better at coming up with technical sol'ns than that other gang, those who spend their time finding new ways to tell people what they like to hear? That question I leave as an exercise for the reader.
