\\\"A Five-Man Band cannot itself be a Four-Temperament Ensemble, as the two are mutually exclusive.\\\"

I\\\'m sorry, but this makes no sense. Am I reading this correctly?
1. Two things can be mutually exclusive yet still overlap.
2. The Five-Man Band is a set of roles reinforced by personality, and the Four Temperaments are personality archetypes. The Five-Man Band could very easily contain the Four Temperaments and still be a Five-Man Band, with one member (likely The Hero or The Chick) being Leukine or some other \\\"fifth\\\" type. I believe this should be changed; stating an absolute anywhere on this site really can only happen in very special circumstances, as a writer could easily create a five-person cast that fulfills both tropes, thus rendering that sentence false.

What a stupid thing to say. I\\\'m sorry, but this makes no sense. Am I reading this correctly?
