Quite so.

We wrote an error message into the language translator we once worked on:

Not Not Not Allowed

- just so there was no confusion.

No, didn't enjoy that one little bit. :)

It makes this seem trivially straightforward:

Not Not had 'not'. Not had 'not not'. Not Not had the right answer.

You are not not (I repeat: not) blocked.
