Even when we "agree" on a vision, not everyone will always interpret statements the same way, since most language is imprecise and heavily influenced by context.

I think it is well thought out and folds back in on itself -- each description of a pattern seems to come from a congruent (with you as I know you) perspective: You describe a continuous cycle of changes using the patterns; in a reflective way (clearly based on experience and observing the "me"), and without any incongruent stances (I can find no blaming, placating, irrelevancy, or superrational), and for each pattern you have described the major (experience based) risk. So it fold neatly. Of great beauty. And I offer to be one of the reviewers of your paper. :-) I really really like your article.
