>Failure to be completely expressive about a paradigm is not itself a paradigm. Its just faulty reasoning. I am being as expressive as my expressivity allows! for x in all-entities-in-universe: SOMETIMES(x = x) Here is an example in Python: class A: pass class B: def __eq__(self, other): return False a = A() b = B() assert (a = a) assert not (b = b) Would you be willing to lead by example and be completely expressive about the paradigm in which fault() is a meaningful function? Don't moralise about my reasoning, when you are done implementing fault() we can pass my function as an input to yours. That will settle the matter without ceremony.
