| in keeping with the comfort of paradox, that detours and accidents comprise our journey toward discovery of hidden variables, and embracing, indeed hoping for the unexpected revelation: what defines the gap [lacuna] between elastic and inelastic : a good with inelastic demand implies that, as prices change, resulting changes in demand [quantity] are small [a steep demand curve], whereas elastic demand [a relatively flat curve] implies a relatively large change in quantity demanded resulting from a similar change in price : so lets say, for analogic purposes, our method of proof [elastic], built upon the axiom of 'sweet imagination', is comprised of many elastic goods, the demand for which will shift widely for changes in value : this implies a good with many substitutes, because as the value changes, those demanding the good will readily substitute another good in its place : lets further say our un-rigid [elastic] proof is to be comprised of goods which are certain elements, for example propositions or conjectures stemming somehow from our 'sweet imagination' : so an elastic as opposed to inelastic proof would necessarily entail a depth of substitution among its elements [elastic goods], and substitution can be alternatively characterized as symbolization, where one conjecture can be readily substituted with or symbolized by another conjecture : |
