I saw someone else do this and it struck me as a really good idea. There's this word I've been taught before that I've been trying to figure out for a few years now.

This word means "arbitrary but necessary." Like which side of the road you drive on is a ________ choice. Maybe the word choice is already implied by the word, I'm not sure. This example is a good one because it really demonstrates the meaning of the word. It really doesn't matter which side you choose but it is essential that you choose a side as your convention.

Can anyone figure this out? Thanks!
