Agree  RE: Semantics
Those views on splits and fronting are very similar to our own. We much prefer "fronter" to "host." Also, there's some ambiguity what "host" means. To some it means the legal identity; to others it means the "original" person or "core"; to others it means the person(s) who front most frequently. Or some combination of the above.

None of these definitions of "host" work for us, because we don't define ourselves or our system in terms of one member being the point of origin, being in charge, or being more real than all the others. "Fronting," on the other hand, means simply interacting with the outside, and it carries no implication that being out is the same as being in charge. Nor does it imply that the one(s) being out exist solely for that purpose, or are the only mentally "healthy" part of the collective self.

We like "came forward." It sits well with us almost as well as "formed" does.
