Do I dare ask what "touchy" is in that case? (Heisenberg says I cannot know the answer to all three.)

If feely is qualitative, as in having an apparent attribute or non-countable comparative then touchy would be the subjective observer attributing the characteristic or determining the comparative.

In other words, touchy feely.

I'm unsure whether touchy and the objective observer would be different, though the objective observer may be called, "county"
