I will suggest you are surely right......but I will say both can be true...
we both know about the excluded middle....
It hit me, delusionally or otherwise that Dylan had some archetypes in mind
and I spat out my impressions.......I am either right enough abou that or
not.
If you straight out disagree that's one thing if not, not....
My further attempt at a quick start at the text and the song is that this
song
was largely written before some of those artifacts you mention.....some,
like Stone's
ver weak kombucha......in my opinion..
