If you look how iterative solutions of optimization problems work, you will
notice that the goal function is a *function*. Looking from this angle the
program P under design is a point in the space of possible programs. The
goal function g takes P as an argument. P cannot compute g, it is an
argument of. Design process needs g() upfront, which we all know as an
empiric rule: you better know what you are going to write. Even such
notably poor practices as TDD don't go that far as you would go by putting
g into P. TDD keeps g outside P as a set of external test programs.
