what is "ontology " ?
#13
A few things an ontology article should probably include:

1) That the major ontologies are archai based so to some extent they are philosophical black boxes. Modosophonts can't really understand how they work.

2) Ontologies are vast metaphilosophical algorithms that, beyond defining objects/agents and their relationships, one can use to derive rules of interaction for cooperation among unintelligible parties.

3) Building on the last points ontologies have been used to construct languages, laws and social structures that allow different mindtypes to live peacefully. Practically speaking when met with an individual one cannot understand one can feed their observations into an ontologically derived software kit and get advice on how to respond.

4) A limitation of ontology is the wide variety of possible outcomes and "garbage in, garbage out"
