With just follow/unfollowing, you can't truly encode Morse code. You would have to override a metadata field or agree on an external clock source to overcome the idempotent follow/unfollow action and encode language into the state machine.

I suppose the interval between the two actions would correspond to a letter in the Morse code here
That would require an additional lookup table that doesn't qualify as Morse code, as well as an external clock source.
I suppose I should have gone over how Morse code works again before asking this question. Thank you.
