Why “edgelessness” is a great word
The state or quality of lacking a definite edge, boundary, or limit. From edgeless (from edge (from Old English *ecg*, "sharp side, border") + -less (suffix meaning "without")) + -ness (suffix forming abstract nouns denoting a state or quality). Unlike "boundlessness," which emphasizes vast, unlimited extent, or "formlessness," which denotes a complete lack of structure, edgelessness is the precise condition of having no perceivable border or sharp delineation. It is the soft horizon at sea in a fog, the seamless bleed of watercolor into damp paper, the quiet dissolution of a murmured word in still air. It is the world softening into a continuum where the line that tells you where you end simply ceases to be.
