"The act of" is literally the first words of the first definition. There nothing that evokes better the idea of time than an act(ion), doesn’t it?
>Emergence means that a lower-level description logically entails a certain higher-level description in some nontrivial way.
The description doesn’t occurs out of time, it’s conceptualization doesn’t happen out of time, the proposal that something could happen out of time is happening within time.
>Both exist at the same time, there is no chronological sequence.
Just because one abstract away chronological sequences doesn’t mean that time doesn’t actually exist as a fundamental dimension.
>It’s a process of logical implication, not a process in time.
That’s not what documenting on history of logic taught me. I warmly recommend everyone to document on the topic. It’s amazing how different the logical firm fundamental beliefs can diverge over time (and even space actually).
