Would it be true to say that a coherent liberal is someone who looks forward to the possibility of being a conservative? Bear with me.
Yes, there'll always be tinkering but the values which supported what is now considered liberal values could be so old as to be conservative

I think you can value freedom and individual liberty and always find ways in the world not yet anticipated to improve those.

So do I but I think valuing these could become traditional values that we need to conserve and so this could become conservative values.

I realise I'm using these terms counterintuitively but in principle liberalism could become conservative values.

We already see people who value freedom & individual Liberty called conservative & behind the times by the far left - enlightenment naivety.
