My philosophy doesn't lack first principles. It incorporates different first principles than yours does. I don't concern myself with why something is the kind of thing that it is and why it changes at all because under my first principles, there is no 'why'. There is simply random and/or ordered change and its description in my world.
What makes a thing what it is, is the types of economies/systems described above.
