White and Red
Black and yellow
Green and Blue
This is the only subtle one.
Compare with [Four-Player Framework
Bystander is blue
Opposer is black
I think Mover is green and Follower is yellow.

Red may Follower or Opposer emotionally.
White may calmly Follower or Opposer with data.

In this book, it is translated as parallel thinking, but is it the same as lateral thinking?
Is it different from the horizontal thinking of "lateral" because it is pretended to be "parallel?"
There's a chapter on horizontal thinking in the chapter on green hats, which is different.
The word imagination is ambiguous; it is imagination that creates confusion and harmony.
Horizontal thinking is "pattern transformation of asymmetric exchange systems."
just as logical thinking is based on the principle of action in a symbolic language (a particular worldview).
Horizontal thinking is based on the behavioral principles of pattern systems (also a particular worldview)
