What meaning do you give to the word "boundary"? Time, location, etc.?
Good point... that is perhaps the key to why I resist the term, it is usually offered to me registered on one of those singular dimensions... while I perhaps perceive it as the superposition of multiple dimensions (and topological relations?). I also find "boundaries" to be contextual which is why some of us end up drawing firm lines in the sand (or stringing fences, etc.)
My best experience of the term is in the social science use of "boundary negotiating artifact" in the sense of:
