I agree. I have this image of two guys working in a swamp, and one says to the other, "Look out, don't step on that lizard..."

If that kind of argument would hold, no country would ever have introduced the metric system. It's merely a matter of getting used to. Besides, "lizard" isn't under attack, "Lacertilia" and "Sauria" are.

but I will draw the line at "Kentucky Fried Dinosaur"...

How is "chicken" in any way incorrect? Chickens aren't paraphyletic.
