That's apparent to the guy you're responding to. He's pointing out that the so-called "unclassified" is actually the class "non-secret". A truly "unclassified" object would not have gone through the process of classification. It would not have a class.
Of course in English this is fairly common. The object of price zero is said to have no price. Yet clearly it has a price, it is just zero.
I have to say that's an amusing observation and sort of reveals the type errors that occur when we model real world things in type systems.

- compuguy 7y agoTrue, but there are documents that have information that is at multiple levels of sensitivity and/or classification. When you work with such information, having such granularity of classification is a good thing (no matter how awkward it looks).
