(4) Perspectives & piecewise approximations:
Levels are not clearly separated, and sometimes we need to view a phenomenon across levels. This is how perspectives arise. Again, they are not just some subjective point of view, but real features of our interaction with the world.
They allow us to explain certain sets of phenomena that are relevant to us. But complex systems allow for many such perspectives that do not add up in any additive or straightforward way.
