Medicine has a good term, “Idiopathic” to mean “we have no clue what’s going on, but we’re still the experts you should defer to”. It indicates an expert ignorance
All fields need a term like that.
How about we use “cryptodynamic” for matters of expert engineering ignorance?

I use “idiopathic” willy-nilly, it’s a very stout word.
Have never heard “cryptodynamic”, though. Is that an actual term of art?
