>So perhaps the best way to build efficient abstractions in systems is to think about the flow of the system in terms of axioms and conditionals. The abstractions are axioms that can be grouped together and the conditionals are the boundaries between them.
I wonder how you square this idea of generalization with Godel's incompleteness theorems?

Then you realized something and everything just snapped into place. You now understand all. Paff! An axiom or condition was just changed in you by an experience. Suddenly you get now what others told you. Welcome to an other system of understanding.
