In literature, "remediable" is often employed to signal that certain practices, beliefs, or conditions are capable of improvement or correction rather than being inherently flawed. For instance, in Santayana's work, the term distinguishes between traditions that, due to their inherent virtue, merit preservation and those that, being founded on prejudices, are seen as capable of—and in need of—reform [1]. This usage reflects an intellectual stance that embraces progress; it challenges the permanence of established customs by suggesting that even long-held beliefs might be subject to change when they are recognized as flawed or outdated.
