In other words, you prefer to be able to draw entirely from primary sources where no reliable secondary sources exist. Which we already know, of course. That is a matter of Wikiphilosophy.
It doesn't deal with the fact that we are republishing a categorisation of vehicles originally presented by someone else, in its entirety.
