I don’t mean that as a personal insult

Not taken as one because what you said is semi-true. The DSM is science by consensus, which is not science at all. Nonetheless, labels have their use. For example, "argument by mere assertion," "more apparent than real," "opinion not fact" and "narcissistic epistemology" (i.e., believing, like OCPD jab bureaucrats appear to do, brain farts, simply because they are one's own and not checking them against criteria of rationality) are all labels that describe something real and provide a useful organising framework. (I don't mean that as a personal insult.)
