I agree. The crossover terms constrain the ungrounded phrases. The more crossover terms, the more constrained the ungrounded terms. Had Kevin said "What have you done to land you in that place in the world?", then it would imply a more constrained space of possible groundings. Prolly wouldn't have the necessary moralized narrative, though.

I took it to be specifically manipulative, suggesting both credit and blame to double-team the person being confronted with a "header and a heeler", "a carrot and a stick"...

Is that in fact, the point of moralized narratives?  To "herd" ?

Though I think Kevin's goal was actually "cutting" or "singling" in the herding vernacular.
