Lol petition to stop naming anything because eventually all labels become bad. /s

I guess I did forget my /s. All in good jest, and like a good jest, perhaps a modicum of truth is there.
we should made labels by hashing publicly registered semi-precise definitions, and maybe add markers to indicate how closely what we mean fits said registered definition of the label.

(I don't actually think this is what people should do, but I do think it might be a cool expirament.)
