“Murphy’s Law” for Moduli Spaces

Over at The Everything Seminar, Greg Muller relates the aphorism called Murphy’s Law for Moduli Spaces.

Strictly speaking, this is an adaptation of Finagle’s Corollary, which is the oft-quoted, “If something can go wrong, it will.” Murphy’s Law itself is the more particular, “If there are two or more ways of doing something, and only one is correct, then an incorrect one will be done.”
