Great thread, thanks Patrick. It's not boring, I'm always happy to read into the inference of the limitations and obvious contradictions of chord symbols.
No system is perfect and you can get some mileage from the quick labeling of triads but it's obvious that real musicians have to go beyond the chord symbols when connecting harmony and counterpoint.
I always got the sense that this is what Barry Harris meant with "movement".

We need to figure it out for ourselves.
We are, after all - improvisers.

Something about the nature of knowledge?

No, it's because it really is incomprehensible

the French way of dividing up the bar - can get pretty bonkers looking. I like it in principle.

Lesson over :-)

And I will never understand why you insist on calling the ground floor of a building the first floor. While we're at it!

I liked the chart... many of the possible harmonic relationships.
Sadly... that's the way my mind works, I see changes and with respect to complete chart and context.... I actually make choices and then organized them with organized targets etc.... I thought everyone did this...
So that's what I hear and see when playing...
