immeasurables
Things defying measurement
Things that cannot be measured or quantified.
The immeasurables are often abstract qualities—love, happiness, wisdom, spiritual depth—that resist reduction to numbers.
In Buddhist tradition, the four immeasurables are loving-kindness, compassion, empathetic joy, and equanimity.
The term often carries implicit value: The immeasurables matter more than any metric.
