What are "domains" feature used for?

Continue of CVSS. Is offensive lexicon strictly forbidden or it only should not be addresed to anyone? - #4 by Libra

@Libra

Finally I see at least something about domains, thanks… Why is so hard to find some concrete information about them? On page for adding sentences I see only their list, but not an explanation what are they used for and in guidelines they just are mentioned as “theme of sentense” without any explanation of this “feature”. But I think that my misunderstanding of that is too huge for this answer. I will open a separate theme for it

OK after providing some links by @bozden I finally understand, that “domains” are planned as some kind of sentence categorization but this feature is is still too undefined for me…

First of all, why is there a huge lack of information about this part of CV? It is mentioned only in the guidelines with only one sentence, that even doesn’t give any clear explanation about its use cases.

OK, now I know that there is this blog post and this post on Discourse, so it is a little bit clearer for me now. But it isn’t easy to find them and I still have a plenty of questions.

• What should I be based on when choosing domain? Should it be chosen based on using of jargon in these sentences or should my choice be based on understanding if some specific sentence can be used in this specific kind of situation? So is a sentence “What is an agriculture?” should be in “Agriculture and Food” or “General” category?

• What “General” category is? Is it used for all sentences that are not covered by other categories? Or is it used for sentences that use only basic the most spread vocabulary (words that are in lists of this kind “1000 words that you need to know”). Or is it used for sentences, that are used in everyday speech?

• What does this f*****g category even mean? “Language Fundamentals (e.g. Digits, Letters, Money)” Why money even theoretically can be one of language fundamentals? How “language fundamental” is defined here?

• How was this list of “Categories” created? Why were these specific options chosen? How can it be expanded and is it even possible?

We know many people in the community have been trying to build models that are optimised for particular use cases, and we want to make that even easier.

If so, why was an option with a specific list of possible values chosen? Why wasn’t be preferred system of tags proposed by users or something like that? Or why isn’t it “free text” field, where you need to fill it. I mean, it will be too difficult to add every possible category manually.
