Should We Have Sections For Smaller Formats?

Where does LF start and MF finish?

This is only my personal feeling but, I'd like to see a section for smaller than "whatever LF is" with the proviso it's film.

Let's be honest, if we can encourage smaller format users to progress then surely it's good for our sport.
 
In another thread I pointed out that pre-WWII 120 and 35mm were termed Miniature formats Quarter plate to 10x8 Medium format. larger sizes - Large format.

Post WWII Medium format was & still is120, Large format 9x12cm 5x4 and up to 10x8, larger still Ultra large format.

Formats like 6x17 fall between the gaps, while using medium format 120 film the negatives are too large (lengthwise) to fit in a 5x4 enlarger.
