Yeh, I can differentiate. Its simple. A real parameter is a rule. Like a law or a rule of court. A false parameter is one of those logical boxes people put themselves in for no reason. I can only demonstrate by example... A few months ago someone file a motion against me saying they were entitled to judgment. I responded that because I had not proved a necessary element of my own claim against a third party, which happened to be necessary for the movant to get judgment, the movant's motion couldn't be granted. The movant blew a gasket in open court and said "Your honor, this guy can't preclude me from judgment by arguing against himself and holding back from proving an element of his own claim." I said "Where in the rules does it say I can't take a position contrary to my claims to get past a motion for summary judgment?" Judge agreed. Everybody in my office told me my argument was improper. I said "What's stopping me?"

All that said, a false parameter that I can't make as much outside law as in keeps me here, so I'm a hypocrite, but we're all hypocrites.
