>Given this, I think it's reasonable to demote FP to the level of "feeling", at least in general conversation. Discussions within a certain language community, or in the context of a book or article, are a different matter of course since a formal, contextual definition can be given there.
This was largely what people thought of mathematics before euclid formalized geometry. An exact definition exists for FP as it did for geometry and like geometry we will instantly recognize the definition of FP when someone finally decides to translate our intuition into formalization.
