lacking uniformity
Etymology
'inconsistently-made' originates from the English word 'inconsistent,' which is derived from the Latin word 'inconsistens,' where 'in-' meant 'not' and 'consistens' meant 'standing firm.'
'inconsistens' transformed into the Old French word 'inconsistant,' and eventually became the modern English word 'inconsistent' through Middle English.
Initially, it meant 'not standing firm,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'lacking uniformity or regularity.'
