Re: [s-d] [s-b] Ballot for Nweek/152



Even then, that would be impossible. You can't define every single words
within a ruleset inside of that ruleset, just like you can't develop a
logically consistent, non-circular system of (e.g.) geometry without relying
on some unproven axioms. The ruleset requires the use of terms that are
defined externally.


Dictionaries are self-contained.
