suitably small
     
         (From mathematical jargon) An expression
        used ironically to characterise unquantifiable behaviour that
        differs from expected or required behaviour.  For example,
        suppose a newly created program came up with a correct
        full-screen display, and one publicly exclaimed: "It works!"
        Then, if the program dumped {core} on the first mouse click,
        one might add: "Well, for suitably small values of `works'."
     
        Compare the characterisation of pi under {for values of}.
