Yet another "proof" that fundamental notions of IA are firmly embedded (!)
beyond the confines of WWW:

"From this time on, participants will be known as 'words.' They are not
understood as carriers or agents of the texts they bear, but as its
embodiments. As a result, injuries to the printed texts, such as
dermabrasion, laser surgery, tattoo cover work or the loss of body parts,
will not be considered to alter the work. Only the death of words effaces
them from the text. As words die the story will change; when the last word
dies the story will also have died. The author will make every effort to
attend the funerals of her words."

When 2+2>4, it's design.
