and of course if you look at the rest of language as well, redundancy is
everywhere to be found... which among other things helps when there is
"noise"...</p>

Nearly all forms of English, with the excaption of Standard ones, tend use
multiple negatives.  The idea that "the negatives cancel each other
out" is a psuedo-mathematical argument that assumes the rule is a
multiplication anyway; when it is obviously additive.  "I ain't no
way no how not gonna do nuthin' like that" makes it quite clear that the
speaker is being negative; you don't have to go through all the negative words
to work that out.</p>
