    Anything can be translated as anything, the important thing isn’t what words get used, it’s that the text as a whole conform to an inscrutable lexical rhythm imperceptible to everyone but me

    I just know that even some of the people who use "divine mystery" (like the dude who fan-translated Mahoyo) admit it means the same thing as regular mystery, it just sounds cooler in some contexts. I can get behind that.
