YES, I AM CREATING DECIDABILITY USUALLY LIMITED TO QUANTITATIVE, FOR THAT WHICH WE CONSIDER QUALITATIVE.

—“My impression of Curts work is that is precisely what he’s trying to do – develop a means of quantifying data that has been traditionally regarded as qualitative so that it can be evaluated more objectively and applied as absolute law.

Am I incorrect?” — John Derbyshire

Technically, I’m making it *decidable* by binary where necessary, qualitative where possible, and quantitative where possible. So the term you’re looking for is ‘decidable’. It’s just conventional that we use the word ‘quantifiable’ because so much of science has been dependent upon scale measurement.

But yes, you are correct John.
