Etymology: Etymology tree Proto-Indo-European *né Proto-Indo-European *n̥- Proto-Germanic *un- Proto-West Germanic *un- Old English un- Middle English un- English un- English inhabited English uninhabited From un- + inhabited.

  1. Not inhabited; having no inhabitants.
  2. Not having a term.

    This is not a contradiction since an uninhabited type has no complete terms and a probability distribution over an empty type is ill defined anyway.

    Unlike Null, Nothing has no instances. We say the type is uninhabited.
