Hi, Taq.

I am also asking creationists/IDer's to establish which species are in which baramin so that the goal posts do not get changed later on in the discussion.
I agree with your choice of the human/ape example, because the "human baramin" is, as far as I know, the only baramin that all creationists/IDists agree on; and the rest of the ID worldview is, I would wager, less important to them than the special creation of humans.
However, I did want to at least make sure one point was clear: it wouldn't be fair to require IDists to rigidly establish the boundaries of each and every baramin. I don't think any evolutionist would insist that IDists do that. That would be like requiring evolutionists to stick to a single phylogenetic tree. I would expect baramins to be a work in progress, just like phylogenetic trees are.
But, anyway, I worried that this might become an issue, so I thought it was important to make sure it was clear from the beginning.
