    I could see literary critique being a science, and good Sci-Fi takes fictional conceps and applies science to them, so Harry Potter Sci-Fi is possible (something like HPMOR perhaps).

    This types of chart are definitely a permissibility scale though, where each box is describing the most extreme position and would include all the less extreme positions to the top and left. I’m pretty sure it originated to describe positions in the sandwich debate.

      Indeed. I always read these charts like the more you go right/down you include the squares in your left and up side.

      No, saying that community activism is a science but physics is not is just absurd. You definitely progress until you draw the line.
