By calling for a theory to be more comprehensive, or for an explanation to include additional dimensions, or a concept to become more flexible and multifaceted, we paradoxically end up with less clarity. A further odd consequence is that the apparent scope of theories increases even as the range of their explanatory application narrows. This seems analogous to poor imperative programming to me: as your code becomes more complicated, the range of it's application narrows.
