I want to call the Virian maxims 'fibonaccis'.....

Postulates of internal continuity, arising from simple (fractal) beginnings, with obvious and physical copies in the unmanipulated natural world (there already is a manipulated natural world).

A Fibonacci.

Any child can make one. Anybody can explain it to a child. A child can turn around and explain it to another child.

QED.
