We weren't talking about the same pdf, BTW -- I was talking about the one

Of course. I only tried to say that Hennig wanted to know the tree in order 
to have something to base his classifications on, while we stop at the tree, 
tie a few labels to it, and then use it for something completely different 
(evolutionary biology).
