As I stared at the creature the words of my 4-year-old son came to mind. “Discord is simply unrelated information viewed through some particular grid. But, like "relation", no-relation is a concept. Male, like the female, is an idea about gender. To say that male-ness is "absence of female-ness", or vice versa, is a matter of definition and metaphysically arbitrary. The artificial concept of no-relation is the Eristic Principle!”
