Re: Nested clades
you might as well make humans and mushrooms the same kind

Which we are, which I point out only so that I can say "opisthokont."

Re: Nested clades
Example horse kind, zebra kind, ass kind.
​
Further examples: there are multiple "kinds" of vultures, hawks, herons, and ravens:
​
And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind, And every raven after his kind, And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind, The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan, And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant, And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
​
Makes for a pretty full Ark, and not so comfortable for those unclean mice and rabbits......

"The wretched world lies now under the tyranny of foolishness; things are believed by Christians of such absurdity as no one ever could aforetime induce the heathen to believe." - Agobard of Lyons, ca. 830 AD
