So now we read that "functional" categories are not to be attempted because
someone might use a tea cup for drinking and displaying? How about a "carriage
bolt" used to tie a roof beam together? How do we handle enormous masses of
information and quantify it in a meaningful context unless we categorize by some
sort of behavioral function? I should think "domestic" is broad enough to
cover drinking from a tea cup and displaying tea sets. As well, the term
"fastener" under "building materials" covers most uses of bolts. Sometimes, you have
to consider the context in behavioral analyses. Well, I anticipate a torrent of
attacks from the anti-functional analysis crowd, now that I have stepped into
this debate.
