No, it is pretty much the opposite of what I said. Both the letter and the 
spirit of the ICZN stop at the superfamily, you see, so neither Mickey nor 
you can drag either the letter or the spirit into the Enigmosauria question. 
(And I don't think Mickey did.) The ICZN cares just as little about 
Enigmosauria as it does about Dinosauria.

The name is as empty as you want it to be, no more and no less.
