Don't argue about the pyramid just circle the genres you like and argue about that

Type-V is non-existent until someone can describe each genre and provide examples of them
William Phillips
I love how all the genres on type V look made up on the spot.
"new complexity", "aleatoricism" AHAHAHA
Hunter Phillips

The top two tiers are complete nonsense. And yes, I did try to find examples of all of them.

Sonorism is polish experimental music from the 50s-60s that focuses on more mathematical approach to composition with more interesting timbre from each instrument. Most notable composer would be Pendereski.
Aleotoricism is generally any indeterminate or none linear piece of music, just look at Cage and Stockhausen.
Stockhasticism is similar to the above but coined by Xenakis, way more mathematical and often uses computers to generate the scores.
Interdeterminacy, see aleotoricism but slightly less random, you might have several set parts to play, but you can play them whenever and however. Again, listen to cage or Ives.
New complexity is a great, the most notable composer would be Brian Fernyhough who writes wonderfully complex music that takes huge amounts of time to learn. I once heard it described as delicately drawing a scribble and is often used as an example of why experimental music is rubbish by plebs for plebs.
Xenharmonicism is a massively over the top fancy way of saying microtonal music. This has to be my favorite of the top three or four bands on this pyramid though. Just so much to explore, try Wyschnegradskys piano sonatas or for something more modern, search for a guy called sevish.
Generative Electronics was coined by Eno and is really just software that you put in a few perimeters and press play, you will never hear the same thing twice and it should last for ever.
You should have sensed the theme that a lot of these are just fanciful ways of saying something much easier to make TYPE-V look super impressive and intimidating, the middle three are practically the same thing. I would recommend digging into new complexity and microtonal music though.
