Excellent: I am glad somebody took my relatively limited (we have to start dialog somewhere...) point and expanded upon what needs expansion. I did not mean to "limit" what we discuss when I said what I said, as these are expansive topics and frequently not easy to discuss. Thank you, Martin, for expounding upon many tangents of this thread and bringing them together in a way that lets us understand that "naming" and "fuzzy" and "nature" are not as precise as we might wish them to be. We've got a real, live thread here, vibrant with great dialog!
