in this way or just this way

0Hi,02br

00I believe Nona wrote this sentence and I wonder if we could delete the preposition 'in' and it won't make any discernable difference.02br
02br
00No we don't use a participle 01u00in02u00 this way as it only refers to the present moment in a temporary sense. 02br
02br
00Why not, just?02br
02br
00No we don't use a participle this way as it only refers to the present moment in a temporary sense.02br

00Sorry if my question seems to touch on a minute point of grammar. 0-
