I would hope so.

I would hope so.

It has to fit somewhere, I don't think the list is easily determined
from the top down like this. I would prefer that keywords were added
for each model and then we look at the accumulation of terms post this
process and work out sets and subsets and maybe places where merging
or specialisation can occur.

Yeah, it's too vague a term at the moment.
