i agree the why is for the philosophers
one of the things - as an ex-philosopher - that i love so much about the jazz is that i don't give a crap about why - just what and how (and maybe when)
i don't really want to read any more of c77 and reg going at it
if i understand four words reg. writes in a row its a very unusual day
but i understand every word c77 writes
you can understand the same empirical phenomenon in lots of different ways - the same item can figure in lots of different pictures - perhaps from different angles. the question can even arise - about one and the same item - if it really is the same thing looked at from different angles in different pictures or is it a whole different thing.
those questions can get boring - or not.
in music they get boring.
i did a post ages ago proposing that - because using minor 6 chords to capture the array of dominant sounds c77 has so helpfully identified is SO SIMPLE - it just must have been the way anti-theoretical early be-bop musicians thought about it all.
i think that is bound to be right - and if it is - it gives my barry harris way of explaining it all - or c77's - a certain priority over the modal approach favored by reg.
but only a certain priority. any way to the same place is fine - as long as its not too circumlocutory
