The notes on using Containers specifically recommends things like "Geography" as the example case. If a group is almost more of a category ("Active Deities" and "Missing/Dead Deities", for examples) then these are reasonable possible uses for Containment.

If you use the World Almanac to hold Setting background data (material that would generally be known "from the top down" of relationships), then topics in the World Almanac are more workable as Containers than the same type of Topics in the Story Almanac (where, presumably, adventure- or campaign- specific topics are located).

Increasingly, I am using the new "Story Source" topic type ("new" as it was not there when I got into the beta) as the root for containment of content from that source, and putting Individuals and such under Storyline entries all contained in the tree for that Source.

I don't know if that helps, but I don't see anything "broken" or in need of fixing.
