And darned good ones they are.
Actually, they would be even better if you could argue that there was
a compelling need to map between the component ontologies. The
worldviews of the pro-life community and the abortion-rights community
might be so different that it would be difficult to find much one
would want to borrow from the other, that wouldn't be available
elsewhere.
I'm not sure there's much to argue about here. We'll just have to see
how different approaches work out.
