This expression with universal quantifiers is nonsense. What I should have
used was a lambda operator for binding the arguments of relations. For example,
((lambda (x y) (less-than (square-root x) (times x y))) 4 1)
But such would not conform to SCL.

how to bind the arguments in the proper order. This can be done with
equations
