theology
1. Ironically or humorously used to refer to {religious
issues}.
2. Technical fine points of an abstruse nature, especially
those where the resolution is of theoretical interest but is
relatively {marginal} with respect to actual use of a design
or system. Used especially around software issues with a
heavy AI or language-design component, such as the smart-data
vs. smart-programs dispute in AI.
