Comparison
The meanings in Domain source subdomain 064 might well be included within Domain source subdomain 058. A subdomain such as Similarity could well be added after Subdomain source subdomain 058005. However, the meanings in Domain source subdomain 064 seem to be more specifically matters of comparison rather than focusing on the nature or character of the entities or processes involved. There is also a problem involved in this set of meanings in that in some contexts it would seem appropriate to speak of something being ‘same’ rather than simply ‘similar.’ Unfortunately, in English the term same does not mean ‘identical with’ but merely ‘closely resembling.’
