布鲁姆阐述了许多复杂而有趣的现象，任何分类理论都必须解释这些现象。我们同意布鲁姆的几个重要观点：物体的预期功能本身并不能解释其分类；对象之间的历史关系对于分配类别成员资格可能很重要；先前来源赋予某个对象的名称可以对该对象的分类做出重要贡献。我们也同意在某些情况下意图可以进入类别判断。尽管如此，我们仍然认为，意向历史理论不足以对人工制品类别成员资格提供令人信服的一般性解释。
Bloom has illustrated a number of complex and interesting phenomena that must be accounted for by any theory of categorization. We agree with Bloom about several important points: that the intended function of an object alone does not account for its categorization; that historical relations among objects can be important in assigning category membership; and that a name bestowed upon an object by a prior source can be an important contributor to categorization of the object. We also agree that intention may enter into category judgments in some cases. Still, we believe that the intentional-historical theory falls short of providing a compelling general account of artifact category membership.
