foreach v of var * {
label val `v' .
}
should undo all associations of variables and value labels. Don't

P.S. Your quotation is often attributed to Einstein, but Alice
Calaprice in the authoritative "The ultimate quotable Einstein"
Princeton U.P. 2011 p.475 found no source. In any case the principle
is as least as old as Ockham's Razor.
