I completely agree. In this case the labels are arbitrarily created so as to convince people that progress is being made. The discussion becomes vacuous because the labels aren’t well defined. This is by design. “Peelian principles” are a useful label because they mean something very concrete, they have some reasoning behind them, they have real substance. Policy discussions should always be about effectiveness of current policy and ideas for reform. To be effective, terms need to be clear and simple.
