Of course, some difficult to anticipate factors are that if category intersections are adopted and become popular, we will likely see a movement towards more implied categories ("Americans" and "Actors" instead of "American Actors")
This is why people want the intersections, so the system should be able to scale efficiently enough for it.
Indeed, what we probably want is a way to formalise these "implied categories". Like creating a category "American actors" which simply contains the text "Category:Americans Category:Actors", and having the whole thing work just as you'd expect.
