No, but I do argue that the fact that classifications exists in other
disciplines does not necessarily imply that it is appropriate for
software development, and especially that it is appropriate to all
software development.

And no, I do not consider generic programming as a classification. I
would argue that it is the opposite of classification: it allows you to
develop algorithms that can be applied to types that have some features,
without requiring that these types have a common "is-a" relationship.
