Let’s put this one through the syllogistic wringer. This means one of two things, either (a) not everyone ''is'' a game changer, but everyone ''can be'' a game changer even if ultimately some are not, in which case, so what? What use is someone who could be, but eventually isn’t, a game changer? And if we are being [[deterministic]] about it — something the [[JC]] is not usually minded to do except to prove a point like this one, but still —
Let’s put this one through the syllogistic wringer. This means one of two things, either
:(a) not everyone ''is'' a game-changer, but everyone ''can be'' a game-changer even though some — most, even — ultimately are not, in which case, so what? What use is someone who could be, but eventually isn’t, a game-changer? And if we are being [[deterministic]] about it — something the [[JC]] is not usually minded to do, except to prove a point like this one, but still — if it turns out you ''aren’t'' a [[game-changer]], then it was as true then add it is now, that you were ''never'' going to be one, you just didn't know it. In which case in what sense was it ever really true that you ''could'' be a [[game-changer]]?

Let’s put this one through the syllogistic wringer. This means one of two things, either

(a) not everyone is a game-changer, but everyone can be a game-changer even though some — most, even — ultimately are not, in which case, so what? What use is someone who could be, but eventually isn’t, a game-changer? And if we are being deterministic about it — something the JC is not usually minded to do, except to prove a point like this one, but still — if it turns out you aren’t a game-changer, then it was as true then add it is now, that you were never going to be one, you just didn't know it. In which case in what sense was it ever really true that you could be a game-changer?
