Continuous Hierarchy: What we are trying to achieve

With continuous hierarchy, we are trying to get rid of recursion. The universe is not recursive, it is continuous. What we need is a continuous recursion, without levels. This works out to continuous self-reference, instead of leveled self-reference. Or no self-reference at all. No self-reference at all seems rather impossible at this point--people refer to themselves all the time, when they say "I", so let's attempt continuous self-reference. Continuous self-reference seems like narcissism, or schizophrenia, but without the mirror.
