	A quantity is said to be '''nil''', or '''negligible''', if it is small enough that it can be ignored. Nil is closely related to the standard mathematics concept of an '''infinitesimal''', but it is not the same.

	The name nil for this concept was, I think, coined by Harry Binswanger in his lecture [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwHAObb7tt8 Saving Math from Plato]. [TODO rephrase or put this elsewhere in the document]
