deliberately effective
Etymology
'intentionally-valid' originates from the combination of 'intentionally' and 'valid', where 'intentionally' comes from Latin 'intentio' meaning 'a stretching out' and 'valid' from Latin 'validus' meaning 'strong, effective'.
'intentionally' combined with 'valid' to form the modern English term 'intentionally-valid'.
Initially, 'intentionally' meant 'with intention' and 'valid' meant 'strong or effective', and together they convey the idea of something being deliberately effective.
