The the human soul has an innate need to name, organize, and catalog information. What's the first thing you do with a pet: give it a name. A stray animal: give it a name. Naming is the hallmark of science; which is an "organized body of knowledge". To name is to be human.
The problem with "tri-color murrine" is that there are hundreds of them, I still don't know what bead you are talking about. A catalog would help dispell the misinformation we all find so irritating. It will help us look up beads in an index, it would help cross-reference them. It is a documentation of what's out there, and a commentary on how it came to be.
Anyway, it's an interesting discussion. I didn't know I had touched a nerve. Sorry. :)
