If Threadgill thinks there is "a cause," that cause wouldn't be "jazz" or any other brand or market category. Many of the great minds of "jazz" rejected that term 60 years ago for what they do (Ellington, Mingus, Roland Kirk, etc., etc.) Artists want to use all the resources available to them to (re)create their world, but if they were always to stay inside the box there would never have been "jazz" in the first place.
