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.
   50 (Yeas:53 Nays:3) 17.67 : 1
   2 (Yeas:13 Nays:11) 1.18 : 1
Shouldn't a Mohs scale run from 1 to 10?
   -2 (Yeas:6 Nays:8)
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.
   -12 (Yeas:1 Nays:13)
Rewrite the page with new definitions and categories, but not as proposed (please discuss in the thread).
   -12 (Yeas:5 Nays:17)
Leave the scale as-is, but move examples onto subpages.
   -21 (Yeas:2 Nays:23)
Leave the scale as-is.
