If something, already classified in a particular manner, is reclassified in another way following different criteria, there may be change in the number of groups, and such a charge should not render the statement suggesting such a classification incorrect.

An individual has the liberty to classify things as he likes. If something is already classified into some groups in a particular manner, he may reclassify it on the basis of different criteria which may result in changes in the number of groups in different ways. This does not invalidate the number of groups according to some other mode of classification. In some cases the criterion of classification may appear to be the same as the previous one but the specific features of each of these criteria should be observed in deciding about the validity of this classification. The same term may carry different meanings e.g. the word roga, antanka, yakshman, doshaprakriti and vikara (morbidity – these terms carry the meaning of or are synonymous with both dosha and vyadhi (disease). Thus the term roga is synonymous with both the dosha and vyadhi. For the rest like hetu (etiology) etc., this term, viz. roga carries a different meaning. [4]
