I couldn't agree more.

IMHO a classification based solely on how the material resources are exploited is extremely limited ... And whose classification is it anyway? Even if the whole planet subscribed to this idea, we're gonna have to take a look at how the Galaxy-class and/or higher-dimensions authorities classify things, if they do at all. After all, what would happen if tomorrow we find an ants' own classification of ant communities? Some will marvel at such unexpected cultural feat of a lower species, while most will have a hell of a laugh - for about a week before they forget about it.

And, don't forget that the notice board with such information might be located in a basement of such authority's building, where the stairway has collapsed and there is a starved tiger on the loose ... In other words, it is a Vogon-style classification (^__~ )
