And NOBODY, since your analogy uses algebraic letters to symbolise swear words, let me counter. (x - y(x)) is (5 - 7(5)) ''if and only if you know that x = 5 and y = 7". What if you don't? What if, just like with the asterisks, the user doesn't know the swear word? If you don't know, the equation still remains as (x - y(x)) (better written as x - xy) still remains (x - y(x)), just as **** still remains ****.
