For better /or for worse

 Now, I think culturally, and in many cultures these words stand out a bit, on account of they reflect something about relationships.  So, if we think about relationships, it is highly fundamental to the concerns of arithmetic, geometry, or mathematics in a broader way, because nothing much happens in the sense of some kind of transition without 2 players.  One of the more important notions of course is that after these transitions you end up with an equality.  When you think about it , although children practice this on an almost daily basis, the notion of equality, is fundamentally , pretty rare, in nature or the natural world.  

But reflecting on the better or worse part, what you do find in nature or real life is these better and worse, or better, or worse, tend to combine in really odd, and ,you might say, inappropriate ways.  Of course, if you did say inappropriate, sometimes the game changes drastically, on account of inappropriate is sometimes a strong signal that, in fact you are really talking about --- impossible --- (*)

Now, comes along, the very strong currents of -- Star Trek ---, and a singular line, from a singular character ,; something to the effect that ---- NOTHING ---, is impossible.  I am not sure where his premise came from, for that conclusion, but everybody would listen to that particular character, because he embodied, what appeared to be, or at least was indicated to be --- pristine -- logic.  

So, this brings us back to another, fairly simple issue of, what does pristine mean, and what the heck is appropriate ?  That only leaves us with, better or worse, better and worse, or maybe, hot and cold ?
