Etymology
'unfeelingly-designed' originates from the combination of 'unfeelingly' and 'designed', where 'unfeelingly' means 'without emotion' and 'designed' means 'planned or created'.
'unfeelingly' comes from the Old English 'un-' meaning 'not' and 'feeling' from 'fēlan', meaning 'to perceive'. 'Designed' comes from the Latin 'designare', meaning 'to mark out'.
Initially, 'unfeelingly' meant 'without physical sensation', but over time it evolved to mean 'without emotional sensitivity'.
