(And this must be one must sa[i|y]d in ever s[l|o] many cases whe[r|n]e the question arises, : “can is this ˇan appropriate description be used or can't it be used? or ◇ not?”. The answer is, “Yes, it

is appropriate
can be used

; but only for this narrowly restricted field, not for everything that you were profess[ing|ed] to describeˇ by it.” Think of the theories of the economists.)
