However, I'm exploring the idea that certain notions of correctness from within the self have to be abandoned, otherwise boundaries are formed between those who don't have shared understanding.But I am specifically addressing why boundaries are formed between those who don't have shared understanding. It is developmental in nature, so I put it in the evolutionary context.

When you don't have the unconscious reactions, you are balanced with respect to catalyst and therefore the situation may be addressed more fully as it is and less as it is in context of how it upsets or displaces your sensibilities, feeds ego, etc.

I'm learning that more recognition of self and hence merging with more of that which is, is available by learning from and trying to identify with those I perceive as different. I'm speaking in terms of relationships with others, and differences in personality, not gnosis. I guess what I'm describing is work on the level of the deep mind.This type of work is what forms the basis of valuing transformation.
