No, fuck paraphyletic groups.

I meant, can't we just be more specific rather than use paraphyletic grouping?

"What's for dinner?"

"Fish"

"That could mean anything!"

"You know I meant Actinopterygii."

"Still pretty broad."

"Oncorhynchus."

"You know how I feel about trout."

"Ugh. tshawytscha."

"Well, why didn't you just say so in the first place?"
