TRIAD: So the weak is fragile, the strong is robust, the magnificent is antifragile.
GAME CONTINUES. {Incidentally there seem to be confusion about magnificent as Aristotle used two different terms: Μεγαλοπρέπεια, largesse, munificence (connection to the Orthodox Church μεγαλοπρεπὴς δόξα is tr. Sublime Glory? ) & μεγαλοψυχία greatness of soul, in Ar. Kibr An-nafs]

(Apologies, my friends, for this scientific digression into convexity, biology, & antifragility, away from aphorisms, Lebanese wines, and more important matters. )

The plot thickens… Louis Bachelier preceded Jensen… by 5 years. He also preceded Einstein ‘s Brownian motion by 6 years…

Jensen’s Inequality

The seminal biological paper (Edelman & Gally) on functional redundancy. Now the point is that biologists miss the convexity (optionality) argument. Every branch knows a version of optionality, but without going to the end.
