Well I never googled to see if my phrase was vernacular per se, though
on having googled for the exact phrase using bunny ear quotes, ie.
"axiomatic purity" I found this dubious title on page 2 of the Google
search results:

Nevertheless, I'm sure that readers of this NG would understand that
my reference to "axiomatic purity" in the context of the design of a
PL is in further reference to the formal mathematical/logical
soundness of the PL from a mathematical/logical axiomatic basis.

So for your further entertainment, would you please search on google
for the following phase (including quotes)
"axiomatic basis"
and report your findings back to this NG.

Kind regards,
