Any construction can be deconstructed.  Each deconstruction engenders its
own debate. Some debates are constructive. Those constructions in turn can
be deconstructed. Following this course, you eventually come to axioms,
which you can merely accept or reject. If you reject the axioms, you are
free to state your own, and build new constructions upon them.  To
conjecture whether these new constructions are better than the former is
both subjective and unprovable.

In other words, xml-dev will have plenty to discuss until maximum entropy is
achieved.
