@brian I’m tagging you because I want to avoid a long and heated discussion while the admins have probably already thought about this issue.

In [What categories should we have? or should we not have?](https://discourse.elm-lang.org/t/what-categories-should-we-have-or-should-we-not-have/29/20) you already discussed a large part of this topic and I’m sorry I did not find it before opening this thread.

Anyhow: maybe it’s time to revisit the conclusions you came to back then, given the arguments in the first post.

If you feel that this is not the case, please close this topic in order to prevent pointless discussions. Thanks 🙂
