I've decided against even arguing it, as you have a definition for intervention that differs from my own, and since it's just a thought exercise word games would only serve to draw it out. What I am suggesting is that this creative act may be untenable for the very same reasons that interventions (by your definition) are untenable (to you). I wouldn't know for certain though. I've asked a couple of times why intervention rules a god out for you (as a plausible god).
It requires the creator attribute for you, but the scale doesn't demand it in and of itself, that's just an attribute that you have given to a plausible god, is it not? I've already made mention of this several times. I think that the scale you've proposed doesn't work due to divine strawberry shortcake being more plausible than any plausible god due to parsimony.
-- There are your lines (these lines have a set length, btw, in many different ways, and you can be assured that they are parallel, defying your proclamations of what is or is not quite literally impossible).

Here is your circle.
Concepts are not visible things.........
"You can show me how 4 can be used to describe something, like rocks in an arbitrary position that then are identified as 'four rocks'," which is precisely what "4" is..............I could also show you what "adventurous" is, even though "adventurous" itself is just a concept, it is a descriptive concept, and so is "4".

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
