    Languages also have inner consistency. E.g. the mentioned python len function is inconsistent with the rest of the same language - and that is a statement that is true in itself, without an external reference point.

      Yes, I agree that the len() thing in Python, and inconsistency in general, is bad. But pretty much all popular languages have many inconsistencies.
