I'm with you.

I suspect that this is in part an instance of a human tendency to think that there must exist some One Best Taxonomy. Without reference to what one wants the taxonomy for I think it's some sort of remnant of Platonic realism-- or perhaps merely of the instincts satisfied by Platonic realism.

Nominally yours,
