Re: Ontology & archetype codes

aren't we, here, in the realms of Descriptive v. Prescriptive Grammar?

*Descriptive* obliges you to change whenever the language seems to.

*Prescriptive* obliges you to try to hold the language static.

The hard bit is gauging the utility of responding to any given change.
