TL;DRAbstract
(1) Knowledge is not just a matter of information as such, but of information that is coherently and cohesively systematized. (2) This view of knowledge as properly systematized information – in effect, information as structured in an idealized expository treatise – goes back to Immanuel Kant. (3) Cognitive systematization is hierarchical in structure because a systemic organization of the exposition of the information at issue into successively subordinate units becomes paramount here. And, viewed in this light, structure will of course reflect significance with larger units dominating over subordinate ones.
