But while I have no actual disagreement with you, you ought to know that, in my own head, I do not *want* these things precisely defined. That doesn't mean if I object if you do, it just means that I won't. While I confess to being a closet Aristotelian, I am still aware that, in the real world, things don't fall into the nice, neat, distinct categories we'd like them to. Magic, especially, cannot be precisely defined, or it stops being magic.
