Eaglery
/ˈiːglri/ (n.)

The legal eagle’s practice — not always intentional, or even conscious — of her wondrously ineffable, inscrutable wisdom. Conjury; misdirection; madness; magic: in nigel molesworth’s wonderful phrase, “the piece of cod which passeth all understanding”.

Immune to the second guessing of management consultants, eaglery is part of the reason that the meatware is still a winning bet against the chatbots.
