It seems like we've gone to some length name the influence node type in a pretty general way, so it strikes me as odd that we've asserted that people/person is an included type on it.
Why not use influence node on other things like musical artists, political events or art movements. For instance, I might want to assert that Andy Warhol influenced Velvet Underground who influenced the Feelies.
What do people think about removing person as an included type?
