13 Naturalistic MO.O.N.: Classify-appreciate

13.1. The naturalist concept is not the naturalist’s operation

“We can say metaphorically that natural selection scrutinizes the slightest variations every day and every hour, throughout the world; rejects those which are bad, preserves and adds up all those which are good; works silently and imperceptibly, at any time and in any place where the opportunity is given to him, for the improvement of every organic being in the organic and inorganic conditions of his life” [DAR 66].

“The indigenous taxonomy is often sufficiently precise and unambiguous to permit certain identifications; thus, the one made just a few years ago by the “Big Fly” evoked in myths, the Tachnidiae, Hystricia pollinosa” [LÉV 62].

“The natural sciences are blamed for there being too many names. But what should we do? Nature is immense, and to be understood when you want to make an object known, you have to give it a name. For nomina si nescis, perit et cognitio rerum” [LAC 72, p. 10].

Our work leads us to hypothesize that the proposal for a new MO.O.N. must be able to resist a combination of skills and abilities that are too obvious, induced or deduced from other MO.O.N.s. That is to say, we shouldn’t be able to extrapolate several abilities from one MO.O.N. onto the abilities of another MO.O.N. In addition, a MO.O.N. can only be apprehended in a C.U.P. of which the U (utility) remains the point of attention and for which the core components must activate in ...
