: As I said earlier: individual terms are completely irrelevant; what matters is the idea-content contained within our dialog. We could agree to replace 'class' with 'fish'. But then 'social fishes' would still be part of the mind's 'classification' operation and our dialog would be neither worse or better off.

My point was that those words, while having identicle tokens, had many different meanings. Likewise, Class and Classification, have different meanings. The former equating to 'social stats' and the latter, to a system of identifying sets and groups.
