Description

Would it be possible to define a black list of facts that would not run?

This is more targeted to build in facts (facter default) rather then to custom facts, as you can use confine statements

and I also assume that we need to solve the chicken and the egg problem (for example if you have a fact name which conflicts with an internal puppet manifest variable) than it would not be possible for puppet to create the blacklist.
