My agreement with Michael Kay is extreme to the point i wouldn't want to 
be responsible for any enumeration that is static or compiled by "me" 
alone. It's a safe way to failure.

And for those believers going after a fairly complete list of options, 
in both private and public apps, "other" provides the minimum foundation 
for evolving a data model down the road, even conceptually.
