_You_ get a handle on it. The concept of  *relevance* includes the attribute 
*relevant  _to _whom_* The situation right now is that it is not the owner of 
the property who gets to decide what is relevant, but a third--or 20 
millionth) third party.

That--among other things--is a real problem. You don't see it at present 
because it is not your ox that is being gored. 

It would be better if you stopped the yawning and paid more attention; a 
philosophy prof (no ad hominem intended) should have a (better than you 
illustrate so far) handle on the relationship of attributes/characteristics to 
concepts.
