'...make toast'
"I don't understand how the Yi does 'third person.'
For that matter, I don't know how the I Ching provides any answers (...)
So maybe the broader question is, how do people think the Yi works -- how does it make a connection between 'us' and our queries and 'it' coming up with a response?
... All I know is it works. And since nobody has a definitive answer as to how it works, ... Of course there are numerous theories, so each of us can pick one, or not.
So true!From Carl Jung's foreward to
Wilhelm's translation,
"The less one thinks about the theory of the I Ching, the more soundly one sleeps."
When divining, the querent has a question.what are the "numerous theories?"
I don't see the 'synchronistic' connection between a distant or third-person "other" who's not asking the question and doesn't seem to have a connection to the Yi at all.

Bradford, can you say more? Elaborate?The Yi does not "do," exactly like the Well and the Cauldron do not do.
