Given that "non-linear" has been around forever, it is worth mentioning that in early days of netology was idea of a "text-base" (="non-linear" now), rather than a "data-base". In those days social scientists like me were gyrating at the ridiculous constrictures of unfree definitions of "data". But the fact is the data-chunk model basically got a grip. Its a slightly odd situation at large that you need convince users now that "non-linear" is sensible. But the words "non-linear" are actually confusing. Its not that it is "non-linear", its that its "NON-determinate", meaning that meaning is not defined categorically by a database.
