One of the problems of universals is that in order to make a groundwork of knowledge, one must presuppose that all theories have a level of intelligiblity close enough to approximate the transference of ideas from one person to another, provided the transference is successful, one can connect the dots and form a serious web of associations that would be needed to uncover more knowledge and make discoveries of epistemic proportions that would lead to a society that advances in the arts, architecture, biology, zoology, psychology and so forth.
