     I agree.  I'm not sure where the boundaries between the software
     constructs we build and the psychological constructs that form
     when we read and write software lie.

     Either not a pattern (because it doesn't recur, so no one has
     encountered it) or a great pattern to share (because it does
     recur, and knowing it can help designers do their job better).
