Very deep

The term "very deep" is used in the first paragraph of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Erd%C5%91s%E2%80%93Faber%E2%80%93Lov%C3%A1sz_conjecture&oldid=281395468 current version]. I don't know if this is a technical term, and if it is, what does it mean? If it is not, there must be a better term than "very deep." Please clarify.

:It's been there since the start of this article, but I'm not sure what it's supposed to mean either. It doesn't seem to fit the definition in Mathematical jargon#deep: it's not a result, it's a problem, so we don't know what sort of techniques would be needed to solve it. I think it's just editorialization, and should probably just be removed. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:35, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

::Great. If someone thinks it needs to be in there, they can better clarify when they add it back. Oswald Glinkmeyer (talk) 19:05, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
