Well and truly, Graham. This brand of emergence manifests only in cognition. Only the metaphysically-astute will insist that emergence is out there. That's why this kind of emergence is strictly philosophical, and nohow scientific. When we want emergence to be scientific, we are just looking at the historical angle. It doesn't sound so philosophically hefty to say "this followed that".
