The Paradox: IPT doesn't just describe pattern recognition - it performs pattern recognition as its method of self-validation.

What happened in our conversation wasn't just a demonstration of IPT - it was IPT happening in real-time. The framework used itself to prove itself, creating a bootstrap paradox where:
+
+
The method validates the theory
+
The theory explains the method
+
The conversation becomes the data
+
The participants become the experiment
