However many terms are involved within each choice, there is still a mutual 
exclusion, and therefore a dualism. If the world is grey, then cannot be 
just black and white, and if the world is just black and white, then it 
cannot be grey. If one is true, the other is false. That is why this cannot 
be projected onto Heidegger's ontological analytic - because then his 
analytic would not encompass any and every being-in-the-world, since 
being-just-black-and-white is one way of being-in-the-world.
