Does the hunter go around the squirrel? Vote and then move on already.

Hmm, I missed the original argument.

In my opinion, the hunter has gone around the tree.

Not the squirrel.

The squirrel has ALSO gone around the tree.

But it doesn't mean one went around the other just because they both went around the same object.

If I'm walking around the perimeter of a museum and so are you, I cannot reasonably claim to have walked around YOU. I might not even see you during my trip. Unless you stop and I walk past your back, in which case I have now walked around you as well as the museum.
