In IA they tend to leave things open without using precise language because things differ from country to country, or region to region. They try to use it as a catch all.

Bugs the hell outta me, too.
It seems to defeat the purpose of having a categorizing systems if things within the category vary too greatly in some cases and don't vary enough between categories in others.
