, 19:32, 25 December 2012→Pragmatic Maxim as Closure Principle: sub[k-variable function/k-adic function]
: <math>C(x) = C(C(x))\!</math>
: <math>C(x) = C(C(x))\!</math>
It is tempting to try and read the pragmatic maxim as if it had the following form, where <math>C\!</math> and <math>E\!</math> are supposed to be a 1-adic functions for "concept of" and "effects of", respectively.

: <math>C(y, x) = C(y, E(y, x))\!</math>
It is also very likely that the functional interpretations will not do the trick, and that 3-adic relations will need to be used instead.
