bill,
     you don't see that "binaries" are "helpfull"...?
so you didn't really want definition after all, eh?
 
comprehension is always a matter of simultaneous
forest'n-trees, genus-species, eh?
so i got no problem with yer taxonomy,
so long as the categorial be simultlaneously proffered
...otherwise itz jes mystification.
 
but, in re the list fixation generally,
if the reader has internalized
bourgeois liberal ideology,
its specious normative categories
-totalitarianism, racism, sexism..nso on,
he is precluded,
cept for the "pretty-passages" school,
from ep and modern art pretty generally.
