Yes right, that's EXACTLY why there has to be some sort of classification system so each owner knows where he stands, although more to the point......it allows a potential new owner to know exactly what he is getting for his money.
As I have already said though......I don't think using words to classify is the right way to go, because words mean different things to different people........numbers would be better because YOU CANNOT ARGUE WITH WHAT A NUMBER MEANS.........unless you're a complete and utter DICK-HEAD of course....
What with me just being an ordinary enthusiast though........if any classification system is eventually used.......I sure as hell know it won't be mine.....as I've/we've already been told..............
