David Marjanovic did a great job with Eunotosaurus. He's right on all counts.

If you seek the ancestry and sisterhood of turtles, the best bet is still within the Pareiasauria, and the best pareiasaur is the one without cheek flanges. Unfortunately it has been largely forgotten and hasn't made print since 1925.
