The characteristic that unites the concept in all of these examples is that limits of nets and filters (when they exist) are unique (for separated spaces) or unique up to topological indistinguishability (for preregular spaces).
This indicates that the particle labels have no physical meaning, in agreement with the earlier discussion on indistinguishability.
Wheeler 1998, pp. 160-161 His resolution of the so-called " Gibbs paradox ", about the entropy of the mixing of gases, is now often cited as a prefiguration of the indistinguishability of particles required by quantum physics.
