In addition to an increased enjoyment of the world and higher creative ability, flexibility in experience modes also allows you to connect with more people, and therefore increases your range of social experiences as well.

I'm kind of seeing this girl who's a sculptor and she experiences the world in a very romantic, sensory focused kind of way, whereas I generally am extremely technical or, during times of relaxation, evocative in the way I see the world. In trying to understand her and connect with her, I've had to force myself to view the world romantically and I've found it to be a very enjoyable and worthwhile experience purely for itself (ie, it doesn't further some distant goal; it is instantaneous gratification). Furthermore, the evocative experiences (which I think are the root of creativity) that come from romantic experiences of the world are very different for me than those that come from the classical view of the world. The classical part of me doesn't even really like the insights because they're intuitively based rather than rationally based, but I think they definitely have value. Great points, I think that the more we understand our thinking, the more we can really use our minds to unlock a huge variety and high quality of experience.
