"Labelling" ew scary word. Ever wonder what a psychologist does when they diagnose a patient? They label them. They give them a name. The name describes the condition to which the patients finds themself saddled with.
A label is short form. You state a "side product of a lack of ideas and ignorance." Guess what buddy, you just labelled it. Maybe no it's all subjective definitions that will only bring on confusion and misinterpretation.
A diagnose is the identification of a medical condition. Identifying such a condition requires considering a large number of factors and cross checking them. Although this can be seen as 'labeling', it's a fundamentally different process than just finding one random characteristic (what one discusses in this thread - see your conclusions about the forum participants) and the superiority or inferiority of minds.
Also, you're muddling defining a concept with simply labeling a much larger concept via one single characteristic. But I'm just too bored to continue, anyway.

Say all the right things. Keep the truth to oneself. Let others discover their own fallability.
That's No fun! Some never discover it! One who's mistakes are not pointed out cannot learn from them. You are either a teacher or an observer. The world has enough observers.
Oops, labels again. Ok..You are either one who teaches, or one who does not teach.
imposed false notions of long ago... also it's an aquired taste which at first may seem bitter. "Truth never seems true." -Simenon

What category do most of your conversations fall into?
Simple minds discuss people.
Average minds discuss events.
