Ha! You (the consumer) are trying to read into what might be the
motivation for my (the producer) message (the data).  Interestingly,
this leads me to recognize another category:

Category 6: Social Environment Differences

1. Social Context: the producer creates the data within a certain 
   social context that may not be shared by the consumer.

   Example: A "flat" in the U.K. has a very different meaning in
   the U.S. (This is not a good example.  Anyone have a better 
   example?)
