1. A systems tends to organize the energy flowing thru it;
2. Resistance follows the path of least energy.
Actually, I'm really thinking that system structure and energy, and
resistance and energy are fully interactive, neither one "really"
determining the other, but both emerging interactively. There, that should
muddy the water a bit.
Have a good day!
