Hi, Marcus,

This is the kind of comment that makes me which I knew more about … um … what 
it is you do.  I get these intimations that your experience might be very 
useful to philosophical cogitations if only I could share it.

Confounding variables, like your example with Simpson’s Paradox.   In 
functional programming, the life history of said person’s evolving point of 
view might live in a monad (a big object).   Every assertion could be bind 
inside the monad and access private information.   Sometimes the assertions 
would fail, but it would fail in a subjective way.
