Now that I really must take issue with!
What taxonomists are trying to do is establish the 'family tree' for
plants (or animals) - which in turn is the basis for many

similarities
of properties and underpins a good deal of botany, horticulture and
agriculture.


Indeed. But they get it wrong far too often. Why don't they just
leave it to the DNA wallahs to sort things?

(Apologies to any urglers who might be taxonomists {:-(
