"An instance in which the Other..." Hum, well, maybe the greek gods, who never were particularly helpful to mortals.
"Is it..any better to write the other as distinct and different...?" Keep in mind that living in two worlds is not static; it's not even a continuum, but more...like playing poker than anything else: I have these cards, and I choose to use or reveal them as I see best, and I will bluff you without remorse to get what I need. Not the best metaphor, but sort of how I see things.
