Etymology
'consistently-backed' originates from the combination of 'consistent' and 'backed'. 'Consistent' comes from Latin 'consistere', meaning 'to stand firm', and 'backed' is derived from the Old English 'bæc', meaning 'support'.
'Consistent' evolved from the Latin 'consistere' through Old French 'consister', and 'backed' from Old English 'bæc'.
Initially, 'consistent' meant 'standing firm', and 'backed' meant 'supported'. Together, they evolved to mean 'supported in a consistent manner'.
