Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Question: Could the TAG help define "The Web Platform" vs "The Web" or some other useful distinctions? (Issue #1202)

@ylafon and I discussed this in the Atlantic breakout today and kind of sketched out (I hope that I am articulating this correctly). 

It would be useful to define some terminology.  We kind of came up with some "buckets" that we think we can think about things in terms of: 
* The Web Platform for stuff that is for inside browsers.
* The embedded Web Platform - for stuff that uses web engines, and largely inherits from the Web Platform but might have some different characteristics
* Structured data - this is all of the formats around XML etc
* Linked Data 

We thought it might be good to discuss wether people think there is some value in discussing whether these distinctions/labels could be helpful to make in terms of guidance around designing features, deprecating things, discussing working groups, etc.  It could be.
