Sub-genres are a necessity, not a luxury. Indeed, sub-genre becomes a necessity the very moment you express the word "genre". Just look up the theory of literature, on which the "genre" construct is based, and you will be struck by an amazing amount of classifications, cross-references, melanges, hybrids, you name it. And if the glossary is rich, its philological, philosophical and atistic foundations are mind-exploding. To do this artefact justice, you need an engine able to express each and every logical relationship as it emerges. In other words, an SQL-database. XBMC has it. Why it is not used is a mystery to me.
