This meta-claim states that literal aspects of encounters—craft shapes, entity appearance, procedures—vary significantly across authors and decades, undermining literalist models. Meanwhile, symbolic patterns such as light, transformation, hybrid beings, and ecological visions remain stable. This suggests the phenomenon expresses itself through symbolic structures rather than literal interventions. Conceptually, this is foundational to DSETI’s symbolic-dream hypothesis.
