Astylar

I recently saw this word at askoxford.com. Refering to buildings, it means ''not having columns or pillars''.

So, could we use this figuratively, in a debate? As in, "That appears to be a rather astylar position you're taking." It would confuse the other side, at the very least.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.

Confusion for sure, no foundation either.
