Binary thinking is also known as a false dichotomy, or false dilemma:

Juxtapose this to Quantum thinking
>from the 2003 Neo-Tech Summit:

" Action #3: Demonstrate the quantum nature of human
consciousness as described in Aria #4. The prize goal is to
empirically identify quantum units of thought called thinkons.
Perhaps the clearest evidences will be first detected in our
"quantum-computer" right brain as Eric Savage suggested in his talk
this morning. While hypothetical at this time, those fundamental
units of thought would logically be subject to human algorithms that
could generate continuous flows of profitable problem solving combined
with quantum-thinking processes that continuously advance business,
science, technology, and art across time and space. "
There is A LOT more to explore in the Summit document.
A lot of work to do to obsolete the a-civ.
Always interesting hearing Gil Magno's thoughts. I recommend his
