That's one reason why the category tree should be kept outside of the
packages file, but in a separate tree imho.
That way, different languages could even have different trees.
aptitudes does this, too. Categories are kept separate from the Package-Tags
that way one can easily modify the hierarchy.
If some languages / cultures etc. massively disagree on one concept, it
is best to add different keywords for these aspects.
