Well this is effectively meaningless. I can see why everyone went over to analytical philosophy. Color is the absence of light and all that. Anything you propose willl have some categorical membership grounded in something measured and observed. The only thing you get in the interpretive weirdness are rules that may or may not be consistent. Not to mention the more serious issue of incompleteness and undecideability. I think that’s the whole issue.

I can't see where analytical philosophy may be of help here, as the proposition would be just meaningless. (Let's say, Wittgenstein I wouldn't be of help, Wittgenstein II maybe. But I wouldn't consider the latter as analytical in the strict sense.)
