The atoms of a screwdriver don’t have tiny little XML tags inside describing their “objective” purpose.
Not yet, but those atoms probably will be tagged in XML with the designer’s intent fairly soon. Also the user manual, credits, bill of materials and sourcing, recycling instructions, links to users groups and issue repositories, etc., etc. It obviously doesn’t change your argument, but I do wonder how our cognitive biases will be affected when everything is tagged with intent and history, crosslinked and searchable. I guess we’ll find out soon enough.
