Parent article -AND- parent category

Currently I must choose between a parent article for related topics and general categories. There's no good reason for this. Why can't I have both?
I would like to be able to categorize my articles, and be able to find them, both through general categories, for example: cities, -and- through nested parent articles, for example: Cites in a particular nation.
This would expand the functionality of world anvil by making it's article structure flexible so as to meet the needs of different types of world makers.
