On some level I think its possible to choose a few cycles of STS in purely STO service. Catalyst and all that jazz.
That said I think the foibles and follies of incarnation make it a paper argument, though maybe its just the chaotic nature of life here and now that makes something like that superfluous. Though I could see the desire to go through the some STS cycles to expand the horizon of existence, learn the other paths to gain greater understanding to the spectrum of existence. This approach holds more water, but still seems flawed.
Whenever I think on STS, I always think of Carlos Castaneda's idea of the petty dictator if any of you are familiar with it.
