A quoisystem is a group of headmates that are unsure or not caring about whether their part of the system is a subsystem, sidesystem, layer, cluster or otherwise.[1]

The term may be used when this feels too complicated to figure out, seems unimportant, feels impossible, or feels as if it shouldn't matter.

It is inspired by the quoigenic label, but specifically for parts of a system that know they are not fully connected with the main system or are more connected with a certain part of it, but don't want to or don't know what to label this experience.

Like quoigenic, it's derived from the French word "quoi", which approximately means "what".
