I mean, it is not that creepy. Philosophy underlies science and almost everything is studied in science. I guess the same is the case for other concepts that are just as broad and fundamental. Or maybe it is possible to go from almost any page to almost any other page. I guess that would make sense too.

Yeah but remember you have to click the first link (except links between parentheses, because they are often translations).

I think it's because, as someone earlier in the thread pointed out. Most article begin by stating what the topic is a subset of. Since everything is a result of humans categorizing and thinking about the world, that inevitably leads back to philosophy.

Yes, I agree. However, that makes it even more interesting when the categorization doesn't lead back to philosophy, but instead goes in a loop.

I missed that. That might make a difference.
