whether there is ALWAYS resistance (implied by you via Lupasco), and to what

Effects necessarily emerge from potentials (IF they emerge at all). But are
both potential and emergent 'at the same time' only while the potential is
unfolding: a physical situation embodies a potential, which can inform. When/if
that potential unfolds the potential is realized, and emerges in its effects.</span></font><font

I agree, but in my view your correct expression, “while the potential is
unfolding” has two significant consequences: the process is neither
instantaneous nor spontaneous. In the Lupasco view of dynamics, a potential
‘unfolds’ against some actual resistance to that unfolding, and the
effects, in almost the same language, emerge, actualized, as a consequence of
that opposition. The word “only” to modify “at the same
time” is justified for simple processes which <i><span style='font-style:

style='font-style:italic'>not</span></i> for complex, informational processes.
Is there an ‘end’ to this dialogue?! And is information not present
