Something I've always disliked about "Dewey" and now "Johnny" decimal is that they intentionally put a human name on the system. I'm not sure who it helps, confusing a system for a human, but it certainly isn't the user.

Also this doesn't work faster than search, I would be open to evidence to the contrary, but obviously none will be provided cause it's simply false. By the time search becomes slow no single human will need to access or read all those files anyways.

The only exception to this is when a few categories have many files, in which case you can just make directories for them.
