Tasteful Tags brings us full circle back to my point about the contextual
aspects of ontology. The flawed wine example that Protégé uses is again an
illustration of how many "tags" or "labels" are purely opinions and an
assertion specific to that context. Wine that tastes "best" to one person
cannot be considered the "best wine" without some form of qualification of
where that assertion comes from. (01)
Question: Where does this stop? If a rock solid? To me it is but to a
neutrino it is not. To water it might not be. To my hand, yes. (02)
Right and wrong are also values people place on things from their own
context. This unfortunately results in much disruption in our world today. (03)
