> invoking so-and-so's law or this fence isn't a productive tactic. Not true. If we both are familiar with the concept, saying "Consider Chesterson's fence" conveys a lot of information. If we aren't, chasing down the reference will almost always result in a much more articulate version of the concept than whatever you or I would come up with on the fly. |
