For the first time, I've came across a sentence something like:
It would _not_ be _sensical_ for Apple to do X instead of Y.
Google finds "nonsensical," "non-sensical," "not (...) sensical," and
positive "sensical," e.g. "... the sensical thing to do."

come from the mouths of people who have had to live.
