+Let's reinforce this. The left-hand side has the form:
+
+ (\body. Φ[...body...]) LENGTH
+
+which beta-reduces to:
+
+ Φ[...LENGTH...]
+
+where that whole formula is convertible with the term LENGTH itself. In other words, the term `Φ[...LENGTH...]` contains (a term that convertible with) itself --- despite being only finitely long. (If it had to contain a term *syntactically identical to* itself, this could not be achieved.)
+
+The key to achieving all this is finding a fixed point for `h`. The strategy we will present will turn out to be a general way of
