K> I'm not sure what you mean by "fit to the sources".
your subyective matter doesn't come out of nowhere. It's got sources, and 
there has to be some kind of correlation between the result and the sources. 
If there isn't then something is wrong.

perfectly right. Let's trash all the theory and build some nuclear reactors 
without.
Sometimes, Khephera, sometimes your "Dogma" is necessary to harvest results 
later, sometimes _much_ later. You may know that something doesn't give 
results now. But how do you know that it will _never_ do so? A lot of 
nowadays important fields in physics used to be thought of as a waste of time 
- if your first sentence had been applied to them, todays technology wouldn't 
exist. sorry, your wrong/right principle is intuitivly correct, but applied 
to the real world, it fails.

I did not mark anything as wrong - and you know that I would not hesitate 
doing so if I thought it were. I only proposed to be careful with these 
things. Languages often _are_ connected, words get imported and exported. But 
in other cases a connection may seem to exist but there's really nothing 
there.
Therefore, some caution should be used, plus the mage should be aware that 
probably he is constructing something. Perfectly ok, but one should _know_ 
which parts are one's own work and which ones are not.
