An example of a mathematical definition ( or even a non mathematical one) which you regard as being "parameter free" and of one which you regard as not being "parameter free" might clear the air.
I am not totally clear in my owm mind what you mean by the phrase.
Do you, for instance, regard the standard definition of countability of a set (set S is countably if and only if there exists a surjection from |N to S) as being parameer free or not, and why? --
