Dear all,
Of course this won't help the discussion even a bit, but what we are doing
here, at least to me, seems to be a perfect example of "boundary-work" :

It gives fascinating material to a sociologist who is interested in
understanding how field evolve and constantly reconstruct their
shift-boundaries.
Sincerely,
ali
