It occurs to me in watching my son learn the most basic lessons of early life, that perhaps some might find it more helpful to focus on the essentials before the imperatives.
Lesson number one - a steady head! - 1-L #1
Zone 1 - a stable, well balanced 'post'
One month down and the little guy has at least a fair bit of this lesson mastered!
As much as the 'imperatives' truly are that, I would love to hear more from Lynn and others who know a bit of the evolution of Homer's thoughts on them as being separate from essentials.
Why aren't they all 'imperative'? Simply because you can compensate for improper essentials? Isn't a soft throw away lob a compenstated imperative?
