There is no argument. The man(Boyd) plainly says what he means on the tapes. From Boyd's interpretation it should be called the "Confusion Loop." It's not about understanding the situation and simply being faster at going through the OODA cycle, it is about how you can intentionally 'confuse" the enemy at all 3 levels.

I am presently working on having the tapes transcribed but that takes some time and money, but when I am done I am going to make it available.
