>I think David's amendment would actually make such a basis possible, though I'm not keen on introducing the word "boundaries" since constraints ARE boundaries. Supposing we restructure my definition as follows: "an entity's ability to make its own conscious decisions within constraints beyond its control"?- A boundry is a fixed limit, while constraint implies wiggle room. My dog on a lease is constrained, but he can move around until I tug. A nation's boundries require a visa to cross them, except in the southern US where endless desert allows free passage on foot. But the intent is 'fixed'. I still like boundry.
