Confounding variables, like your example with Simpson’s Paradox.   In functional programming, the life history of said person’s evolving point of view might live in a monad (a big object).   Every assertion could be bind inside the monad and access private information.   Sometimes the assertions would fail, but it would fail in a subjective way.
