I'm not convinced I'm keeping my levels of reference straight, but if I can knowingly consistently accurately talk about epiphenomena, doesn't the structure or contents of the uncausing stuff cause me to think in this way rather than that way? I'm not sure how to formalize this intuition to tell if it's useful or trivial.
Then it's not uncausing. It has caused you to think in this way rather than that way.
