Acquisition explains everything.
Itch: acquisition of satisfaction of demand for the ending of minor pain.
Gazing: Intersection: acquisition of distraction by wonder, promise of an undiscovered valley (resources), absence of threat. ie: mindfulness.
Murder: acquisition of satisfaction of suppression of stress or anxiety by dominance expression.
Homeostasis (biological with psychological consequences) vs Mindfulness (psychological with biological consequences)

Would you say your framework captures all human behavior, or is it limited to something like intentional and/or interpersonal (which is, of course, the important part)?
I can see how much/most of what we do is acquisitive, but what about these, for example?
– scratching an itch
– gazing at the night sky
– serial murder of random people (just for the thrill of it)?
