I would say, that it is best to keep calling animals as those are called officially and not start to create "alternate realities" in, should I say after all "amateur forums". It is of course ok to speculate and observe, but there is still science community with professionals, who change classifications when they see, that there is enough information and justification to do so. I don´t think, that people here have enough competence to create new classifications even though there can be reasons to make good estimations about future.

I would find it quite interesting if amateurs would start to make own realities ignoring what professionals are saying. Changing some classification for sure happens if and when there is enough information, which is agreed broadly in science community. Reply
