Fascinating essay! I hate it when that red squiggly line appears below words that make perfect sense but, for some reason, are not in the software's lexicon.
I came across the word unperplex in a John Donne poem. I used it to describe the passion of romantic love. It sounds better than "solve" or "complete."
Unperplex is good. I like that very much, though it sounds, to me, more intellectual. "I would like to be unperplexed about his political opinions," for instance. Thank you for the comment and for the new word, David.
I construe that your dictionary is lacking, for what it's worth. I am indeed gruntled to be able to report this, but maybe corrigible in the event that I have misconstrued. Ah the variety and vagaries of the English language.

Yes, definitely. I regularly—and perhaps too often—click 'add to dictionary'. Thank you for the comment, Rohan.
