    Pour la postérité, voici la première formulation publique de la loi de Wadler que j'ai trouvé : http://www.informatik.uni-kiel.de/~curry/listarchive/0017.ht(...)

    WADLER'S LAW OF LANGUAGE DESIGN

    In any language design, the total time spent discussing
    a feature in this list is proportional to two raised to
    the power of its position.

    0. Semantics
    1. Syntax
    2. Lexical syntax
    3. Lexical syntax of comments

    (That is, twice as much time is spent discussing syntax
    than semantics, twice as much time is spent discussing
    lexical syntax than syntax, and twice as much time is
    spent discussing syntax of comments than lexical syntax.)

    pertinent adj. Approprié : qui se rapporte exactement à ce dont il est question.
