Theory time

This has been Fire’s long-awaited masterpiece. At the time “it” was discussed, Fire said something like only a certain resident sage here might be able to make full use of it. That was a long time ago, though possibly in reference to V1, since V2 seems to offer plenty of benefits even for the beginnest of beginners :^)
-
Saint said in the Khan Black journal, mentioning that Hero was a foundational sub for what’s coming ahead, and that he’s running KB to be ready for the future and to walk it alongside us—or at least those of us who make it that far.
-
The new Hero + AEON are the endgame subs for this era. Saint mentioned something about “not needing subs again,” and some people had theories about what that might mean. My own theory is that for a user who is sufficiently advanced in life—meaning they already have a decent starting point in health, wealth, love, relationships, free time, etc.—and who has the fundamental prerequisites like running KB and Alchemist, that user could theoretically gain far more from running AEON than from any individual wealth, learning, or romance sub. It would be like gaining a master key—a highly advanced and versatile tool that replaces the need for task-specific subs. That doesn’t make the earlier subs redundant, though; they’re required just to get to that point.
-
The idea of never experiencing recon again further supports this theory. A user who runs another sub alongside—or after—completing and mastering AEON would likely achieve the sub’s goal with maximum flow. That would mean gaining up to 90% of the benefits with minimal resistance, then moving on to the next sub while carrying forward all the improvements.
-
Lastly, Fire & Saint seem to always leave breadcrumbs for upcoming subs both short and long term. The less specific they get, the more volatile or early the project is which makes sense. There is a reason for the obsecurity, more than being smart enough to not dig themselves in a hole that leads nowhere, and that is simple. No handholding, Milk for kids and Meat for the adults. Those who catch on will see and be ready. Those who are not, there is more than enough life changing tools at their disposal that contiues to be improved and innovated. Everybody wins with subclub
