Description

Functionally, to abet is to facilitate an action by providing resources, encouragement or opportunity. This support increases the likelihood that the primary actor will carry out the intended behavior. The abetting role operates through collaborative influence rather than direct execution. It shapes outcomes by strengthening the conditions under which an action can occur. This functional mechanism highlights the importance of indirect contributions in complex interactions. Through this facilitative role, “abet” becomes a driver of amplified agency.
