Concept
Deep specialist expertise paired with metacognitive flexibility — the second-order capacity to recognize structural analogies across domains, suspend one’s primary paradigm, and treat one’s own frame as one option rather than the substrate of reality. The bridge-node mechanism: depth is what gets a bridge admitted as a peer on either side; flexibility is what lets it see and translate the structural analogy that crosses. Refines the outline’s ‘transferable preconditions’ answer into the paired-skill form.
