I agree 100% - remember the example of the Belgian mathematican? If I'd read
that article, for whatever reason, how big are the chances that I also want to
read about, say, Belgian museeums? Or a whatever-machine was named after this
person; do es the reader really need a list of other whatever-machines that
were named after famous mathematicians?
Now there would not be much of a problem if there was only one relevant field
that has a box, unfortunatley, ususally there are several fields to which an
article relates, hence it would most likely aquire several boxes, who would be
fighting for the best positioning into the bargain.
