The great virtue of the single-minded (I guess) is that they keep things going and get things done. Their drawback, as I have said,* is that they may not be good at the initiation of change, or discovery. But a great problem which the single-minded pose for the 'multiple-minded' is that although the latter can make some attempt at understanding the former, often with some success, the former rarely can (or wish to) understand the latter.**

Most of these latest comments*** apply strongly to U~, which is diametrically opposed to R~ and therefore should be the most intensely single-minded.
