Is "vaporous" a synonym for "diffuse" or a separate category?
Vaporous - vapor, misty, made of airy stuff. Diffuse is not the same thing - jellies, oozes, monsters made of animated water are Diffuse but not vaporous.

EDIT: Vaporous is not a trait or advantage; it's a description, like "Humanoid", and would apply even if the being is Insubstantial, Diffuse, or manages to be solid ie Homogenous or whatever.
