Tautologies are beautiful and helpful because they help people and are full of beauty.

oliculipolicula•10h ago

Trying to reword your joke to one more aligned with TFA's:

  Tautologies are B&H because they confound intuition (H) AND are truthful (B)

NGL, I made use of following tautology

Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.

https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/44477/ode-on-a-grecia...

Author in comments: Fair point. I suppose I decided to use the term tautology for the same reason I embrace "[liberalism=]neoliberalism", to defend a term that is often unfairly maligned.

I love a good tautology like Clarke's "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic", but sometimes enough is enough!

Honestly I think any economic minister, such as the chancellor in the UK should be required to read this. It's amazing in a time when they champion growth, without understanding these relationships.
