I will ask you what I didn't ask brixtonbrood though, which is re the analogy with trousers: although you may talk about "trousers" in the abstract, if you're pointing at an example you would surely say "that is a pair of trousers" rather than "that is trousers"?

"Those are trousers, my dear Winthrop, and those, Fotheringay, are boltcutters. Surely you recall their use in the Cumberland Escapade?"
