Exactly!,......it has been the entire basis of taxonomy description since the 1700's when Linnaeus started the ball rolling. Now some want to re-invent the wheel and make it square..LOL!



I don't really think square wheels work better than the nice round one's that have been around for countless years. Some stuff works better with much newer applications, but in this case, it is a huge freakin flop in my opinion.



Some of the ratsnake stuff royally screwed-up too.



The DNA thing is a new scientific "toy", so they naturally feel compelled to figure out silly ways to use and apply it. The dumb part is you don't use DNA to describe something you are looking at, you use your freakin EYES!..
