To create a space that holds together information of a varity of data (types, format, unit, etc). This would enable a more holistic approach to themes that include multiple points of content, which itself can be linked to several themes.
Example: Download a PDF of a book. Read it. Notes derive from that. Those notes can concern a diary, quote for some other work, inspiration for art, language learning, etc. The book itself can contain text, data entries, tabular, photo, etc.
There is a multitude of possibilities to find categories for every aspect of this 'idea'. The goal is to find a (not 'the') abstraction to handle data so it is possible to work with it. As someone already mentioned, even if such a system can be found, it is unclear if this would make it easier to work with all it contains, than how we do it conventionally.
Addit: DevonThink comes closest to what I described.

How does this differ from other note taking apps like Obsidian?
