[back-formation from {hairy}] The complications that make something
hairy. "Decoding {TECO} commands requires a certain amount of hair."
Often seen in the phrase infinite hair, which connotes extreme
complexity. Also in hairiferous (tending to promote hair growth):
"GNUMACS elisp encourages lusers to write complex editing modes."
"Yeah, it's pretty hairiferous all right." (or just: "Hair squared!")
