Yes, I think the WP model has scored here, by allowing a bit of soft pedal when it comes to aspects of the categories that are not quite right. I actually made a public comment about the category system and failure-in-principle (you know, Leibniz, [[universal characteristic]], all that) at the first ever meet-up, in London. Fortunately Jimbo moved swiftly on.
