Thanks for doing this investigation! I love your thoroughness and precision.
Based on my personal ontology of this, “something sort of similar that isn’t curiosity at all” doesn’t register as a relevant class of object to me. It sounds like it’s relevant to you, however. Perhaps there’s something you want to preserve with the term “curiosity.” That’s interesting, and I find myself curious about it (more open than active, atm).
As an aside, I get the vague sense that you’re doing something somewhat confusing (to me) with regards to building maps of phenomenology. Especially when I read the set of questions about joint-carving. This seems like a longer conversation to be had, if you wanted to have it one day.
Some of the confusions I have can be summed up in these inquiries: “If ‘open curiosity’ ends up being fairly distinct and unitary, does that make it more joint-carving? …Why?” “Does ‘more joint-carving’ basically stand in for ‘more real’ to you? Or something?”
Anyway this is a longer conversation, I think, and best to carry out not-via-text. But hope reading this was useful or insightful for you.
