Thanks for the interesting link. The world may have a "huts and lions" view of Africa and may find it convenient to classify Cape Town as no longer "African" because it's more developed. But I would question that sort of definition of Africa as necessarily implying "third world". As you say, people must regard Africa as a whole, from North to South, East to West. What's needed is more definition, more detail, more brush strokes within the outlines. Talking about all kinds of African cities (including Cape Town) will help in that respect.
