I still maintain that categories are the best way to organise our content, provided that we have unions and intersections. Tags simply don't provide the necessary hierarchy and structure to make organising content simple and easy; they're excellent for random browsing, but not so much for hunting down specific articles.
I agree with you completely, John. It's just that the present state of the Category system is completely out of control. The existing Policies on Categorization have become more complicated than the U.S. Tax Code; and, those that can be deciphered are being completely ignored. I, for one, am not sure how much more cerebral RAM and emotional energy I want to spend on this.
