I get what you're saying, I am just uncertain as to whether or not there is a third option, or an Nth option, as I am unaware of how many possibilities there can be, in a kind of fuzzy logic way, but with the real number values between the two standard Boolean values 0-1 as undetermined.

"Behold Plato's man!"
