Give abstract kanji a room
Grouping invisible ideas prevents them from becoming loose fog.
Overview
Mind Set covers the invisible half of language: feelings, thought, knowledge, desire, truth, memory, difficulty, judgment, and abstraction.
It gives those abstract ideas a clear first route, so each kanji has a place to land.
