Based on Walter's description, yes. And a mozarella one at that.
If the delivery service forwarded the message, they better route
it to the right Chinese restaurant. If I sent it directly,
I better know (apriori) they make a fine mozzarella pizza.
If they can't, On Error Try. No problem: call me so I
can send the order to Dominos and make a note to myself
to use a different message port on next call. Meanwhile,
I will route messages to a list of subscribers to
do the same.
Is it about expectations or testing the results of
expectations on error? A semantic web should be
built only for things to which commitment is reasonable
in the context of resources. I think the phrase was
"useful things".
Why do we need conceptual models?

But would you expect to get pizza from a Chinese take-out restaurant?
I think you'd rather that they gave you a phone call (or electronic
message) if they didn't have a good way of processing your pizza request.
And what would you do if the delivery person showed up with the take-out
place's interpretation of a 'pizza'? You sent them the order, after all!
