[[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider    ]]]

Your idea has both "filters" and "categories".  I gather that both
filters and categories select subsets of the set of all the options.

What is the difference between these two kinds of subset?
Which subsets should be "filters" and which should be "categories"?

I understand the general goal here, but _how_, concretely, does this
interface do that?

You talk about general goals, and they make sense as goals.
But in order to be an idea that is possible to consider,
it has to explain _how_ it will make certain options
more discoerable.
