Beware a common misunderstanding

When I say boundary, I don't just mean an arbitrary constraint or social norm. («Boundaries» Pt. 1)

It is for this reason that some of us (including me, I (@Chipmonk) elect to notoften use the term "membranes" instead of "boundaries" alone, but also use the term "membranes". It aids understanding.
