panchreston

[pæn'krestɔn] n
gen. a broadly inclusive and often oversimplified thesis that is intended to cover all possible variations within an area of concern (merriam-webster.com); an explanation that is used in so many different cases that it becomes almost meaningless (wiktionary.org); a proposed explanation intended to address a complex problem by trying to account for all possible contingencies but typically proving to be too broadly conceived and therefore oversimplified to be of any practical use (collinsdictionary.com)
