[tcs-lc] Incertae Sedis, and broader issues

Sorry for the confusing wording in the "Pyle" interpretation on incertae
sedis.  Let me try again:

Pyle:
A parent-child relationship between two Concepts, where the difference
between the Ranks of the NameObjects attached to each of the two Concepts
exceeds some threshhold value -- either an absolute value [e.g., skipping
one of the "root" ranks], or an in-context value [e.g., most concepts that
are attached to names of rank "X" in a treatment are linked to parent
concepts attached to names of Rank "Y", except for a few at Rank "X" that
are linked to parent concepts attached to names of ranks higher than "Y"].

Not that this is any easier to understand, but at least this time it makes
sense to me.

Aloha,
Rich
