Aphorism: Being without Structure?

Structure is the interconnection of properties.

I do not understand how something can exist and supposedly possess no structure whatsoever.

Norbert's Reflections: The Special Status of the Physical in the English Language - In Search of an Ontological Language (17 August 2026)
