I've been circling the same insight my whole life, and tonight it found a new language. The taijitu is Wheeler's one-electron universe in action: an electron acting on itself on the other side of the cycle. The two halves aren't two substances; they're one thing at different phases.
I used to say you could only get it if you put it in motion till it stops moving and is just flashing back and forth. The dots say the rest: each half carries the seed of the other, because they are the other at a different point in the cycle. The positron was never a different particle: just the same electron going the other way in time, one hand clapping, 0 = 1.
