The unbalanced biases are perpetuated by patterning. That's how complexes are retained and their structure is refreshed, for example. We tend to identify with one aspect of self at the expense of the other. Being present is an awareness that does not hold onto dualities. The unbalanced biases are strong attractors towards dualistic perception - that is, the more unbalanced the stronger the perceived duality. It's just a thought filter. A nuance is not what I'd categorize as a strong attractor or even an unbalanced bias.
Don't back me into a corner of word choice. I won't be able to escape
I suppose what I'm trying to explain is that "Being present in awareness without dualities" is, in actuality, a new pattern. I can't see that this new pattern would transcend a 3D structure of biases and patterns of duality. In my view, it only creates a new idea in biases and patterns that are completely subject to a new duality experience, but its tough because its one that attempts to deny it from the start.
