They are no more arbitrary than this is! Look, ignore the "context" label. It's another axis along which you can slice and dice your tasks by whatever arbitrary distinction you please. Mindset, energy, location, tools, whatever. The object is to be able to look at a smallish list of tasks and choose an appropriate one to work on next. Think of it like choosing a good hash function: you want something that scatters the tasks relatively evenly across all of the bins (to avoid having everything show up in the same context), is easy to compute (so you don't spend a lot of time deciding which context a task should be assigned), and so on.
