From Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Part Three of Her Masterwork on The Dangerous Old Woman"It is the nature of the saplings to quake in the winds; hesitant, learning to hold their own places. But, the older trees, with their years of testing and being tested, they are the ones who, whether in the long stern winds or misty gales, sway the most.

Is it formulae, schemas, lexicons? It could be.
