There are no universal properties?

A non-trivial universal property for a domain asserts something non-trivial about everything in the domain. You think 'political' is a trivial property?

Who knows?

But this is reference to exceptional (low entropy) properties. If you multiply highly informational properties, they stop being informative. And move more towards white noise.

In this case, you have reached a context in which a property is of zero bits (trivial), but still has useful content, which is already recorded in the context.
