State and Strategy are dual composition-based behavioral variation mechanisms operating along orthogonal axes: Strategy varies algorithms by client choice (the external extension spectrum from skin to guts), while State varies behavior by object lifecycle transitions (internal state-driven change) — both using delegation but modeling fundamentally different dimensions of behavioral variability.
These two depth-1 conclusions each describe a behavioral variation mechanism via composition; recognizing them as orthogonal duals reveals the two independent axes along which behavior can vary
