“Repeatable identifiable categories of dubious usefulness”
Yep, there’s a lot of this in modern science.
“Is this method of classification useful? wrong question! All you need to ask is, is it easy to write a reproducible paper (or shareable web content) on this method of classification? Yes, yes it is!”
There’s a lamppost problem at work here.

If you track and bill medical conditions, you need a consistent language for things that will be consistent across medical providers. It solves a problem, just not the problem most people think it solves. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSM-5 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSM-5
