Presumably you enjoy arguing with yourself and creating cute little philosophical puzzles without bearing on political realities. Since most of your expectoration has no bearing on my statements that is the only reason I can see for spewing them.
Maybe your confusion about these issues can be resolved by looking up the definition of "metamorphosis" it is especially relevant to organic processes such as the establishment and growth of Nations and their political evolution.
Those elements of the Nation which evolved a bit more slowly were not less organic parts of the Nation for that. Bringing the entire Union up to speed was not without some starts and stops. New York didn't have Senators appointed for the first Congress for example. But it was still part of the Union though not represented in the "states" portion of Congress.
Article XXX. In the government of this commonwealth, the legislative department shall never exercise the executive and judicial powers, or either of them: the executive shall never exercise the legislative and judicial powers, or either of them: the judicial shall never exercise the legislative and executive powers, or either of them: to the end it may be a government of laws and not of men.Massachussetts Constitution
Adopted 7 years prior to the drafting of the Constitution of the US.
We are a government of laws, not of men, metamorphasis, political evolution, metaphysical concepts, secret essences of legal potency, or normative auras.
We are not bound by any organic process, unless codified into the Constitution of the United States. Your posts are becoming reminiscent of midieval disputes about the nature of the Trinity.
