I think the point is that you're comparing Granny Smiths to oranges. If you want to argue that pleasure is less specific than its opposite, to talk about "pleasure" and "displeasure" makes more sense than to talk about "pleasure" and "pain."
My purpose was to talk about pleasure, not about pleasure and its opposite. Displeasure is also a non-thing.
Just to clarify: are you categorically denying the reality of broad categories? Or is there a more subtle point here that deals more with positive feelings?
