Railway turntables are devices for turning railway stock from one track to another.
Locomotives can be switched from one track to another, e.g. using a railway turntable, but once they’re on a track, that’s the track they’re on, and the destination is unalterable.
When I’m on a God track, I can’t go wrong.
When I’m on a self track, I can’t go right.
Steps Six and Seven are absolute: they represent the turning from one track to another, the self track to the God track.
There are no half measures possible.
