As, per Heisenberg, ''existence'' and ''justification'' cannot be simultaneously determined, it leads one to the conclusion that a meeting that one is presently attending, and that therefore definitely exists, must have only an indeterminate point, whereas the sort of meeting one would ''like'' to have — ones which would solve perennial problems, achieve useful things and do so in a way that was quick, simple, effective, and which imbued each attendee with a revitalised sense of vigour and purpose — these meetings cannot be certain to happen at all and, if they do happen, are likely to be highjacked for some ulterior, indeterminately consequential purpose.
Since, per Heisenberg, ''existence'' and ''justification'' cannot be simultaneously determined, it leads to the inevitable conclusion that a meeting that one is presently attending — that is, one that definitely, right now, exists — can only have, at best, an indeterminate point, whereas the sort of meeting one would ''like'' to have — one which solves perennial problems, achieves useful things quickly, simply and effectively, and which imbues its attendee with a sense of vitality, vigour and purpose — those kinds of meetings cannot be certain to happen at all and, if they ''do'' happen, are likely to be highjacked for some ulterior, indeterminately consequential purpose.
