Ooh I had not heard "purity" defined this way previously in such explicit detail, but it makes perfect sense and I really really like it. Thank you so much for

Ooh I had not heard "purity" defined this way previously in such explicit detail, but it makes perfect sense and I really really like it. Thank you so much for giving me better words for this going forward!
Edit: I think, though, that my point kind of still stands in that, with respect to a specific level of semantic detail, a language is either pure or it isn't. Further, I think it isn't useful to compare Language A at Semantic Level 3 to Language B at Semantic Level 1 to compare purity; you're generally going to be sticking to one level of semantic detail at a time, and within that lens all languages will either be pure or impure. Right? Hmm maybe I need to think on this more.
