Forse i simboli non sono giudizi, ma attributi oggettivi. Potrebbero essere ad esempio caratteristiche fisiche o anagrafiche o occasionali. Tipo la frequenza degli incontri o la lunghezza dei capelli o la somiglianza, da lontano, con altri artisti... L'importanza di questa forma tassonomica è che non si sposta mai dalla superficie del manifesto, pur percorrendolo in tutte le direzioni. Questo fenomeno di localizzazione spaziale del linguaggio è dovuto alla chiusura semantica dei simboli".
