Why does having more than two choices mean we must abolish all categorization?
- sp332 7y agoIt's not impossible, but it does get unwieldy. The Paralympics, for example, has lots of categories. https://www.paralympic.org/classification https://www.paralympic.org/classification There's a bunch of arguing about the categories and sometimes athletes will intentionally injure themselves to move into a lower category (like a boxer starving down to a lower weight class, but usually more damaging). Seems like they face another binary choice: abolish categories, or argue about the categories forever.
