I did not assert that ken is an integer.  My assertion was that ken can be
ken and also be boring.  You have already conceded that ken can be other
things besides ken when you state that ken is informed.  You cannot
continue using your above line of argument to show that ken cannot be
boring while still maintaining that ken is informed.  In fact, ken is
ken, ken is marginally informed, and ken is boring.
