Canons are bizarre. In order to share knowledge, culture, science, tase, even words, we rely on common denominators, often ones, that have resulted from processes unclear to or unaligned with us. Why must our scientific and artistic output need such reference points or value-systems to emerge, find legitimacy, and survive?
