There is no performance without a waltz, a waltzer and waltzing,
three distinguishable but insparable elements. People aren't
notations upon a page; they're interacting with each other in a
commom world. As such, your example doesn't apply, since it is
based upon a flawed metaphor which fails to truly map the territory.
