We live as if we know how everything will turn out. I certainly lived that way. But we don't know anything. Really, we don't.

Uses are always much broader than functions, and usually far less contentious. The word function carries overtones of purpose andpropriety, of concern with why something was developed rather than with how it has actually been found useful.
