Crown Description:
Several tropers question whether the present categories correctly describe what science fiction fans mean when they discuss how "hard" or "soft" a given work of science fiction is.Rewrite the page with a new scale, changing the definitions and categories.
Other than thinking that Futurology might want to be split into works falling into either side of Technology Marches On / I Want My Jetpack and works where the future tech is still realistic (or even actually came to pass) - They weren't wrong for scientific reasons, they just got their predictions of what technology would take and what wouldn't wrong, or the time scale wrong, I like the latest proposed scale.
Rewrite the page with new definitions and categories, but not as proposed (please discuss in the thread).
