Etymology
Unarbitrary breaks into un- meaning 'not' and arbitrary, which comes from an old word for a 'judge' or someone who decides by their own choice, as in the English arbiter. So unarbitrary means 'not decided by one person's choice' and refers to methods or rules based on clear, fixed principles.
