No Mark it isn't. And it isn't true
that the only alternative to total unstated subjuctivity is a
list made up by an authority. And while it may be hard to get
complete agreement about the definition of "Hard-Boiled," it
would be much easier to agree about selecting a definition
for purposes of building a list.
I'm not quite certain how you "know"
that all the lists you're familiar with have been arrived at
in the way you're proposing, but if you say they were, thats
okay with me. You and I are not going to agree about this,
but that's okay too.
