Just like that, in that that separation is internally enforced, by peoples interpretation and understanding, rather than externally enforced in ways that makes it impossible for you to, e.g. believe the e-mail from an unknown address that claims to be from your boss, or be talked into bypassing rules for a customer that is very convincing.

If they were 'clearly different' we would not have the concept of the CEO fraud attack:

That's an attack because trusted and untrusted input goes through the same human brain input pathways, which can't always tell them apart.

These are different "agents" in LLM terms, they have separate contexts and separate training
