That third trap - "...the nuance of the connoisseur. It is mostly a species of self-congratulatory symbolic violence." BOOM.

Symposium: “What is Good Theorizing?”
Fuck Nuance
Kieran Healy1
Abstract
Nuance is not a virtue of good sociological theory. Although often demanded and
superficially attractive, nuance inhibits the abstraction on which good theory depends. I
describe three “nuance traps” common in sociology and show why they should be avoided
on grounds of principle, aesthetics, and strategy. The argument is made without prejudice
to the substantive heterogeneity of the discipline.
Keywords
theory, nuance, models, fuck
Nuance is not a virtue of good sociological theory. Sociologists typically use nuance as a
term of praise. Almost without exception, when nuance is mentioned it is because someone
is asking for more of it. I argue that, for the problems facing sociology at present, demanding
more nuance typically obstructs the development of theory that is intellectually interesting,
empirically generative, or practically successful
