Sticking to the point

From a distinguished correspondent, via e-mail:
While one could have long discussions about the exact meanings of words like bird, fish, insect, plant, tree, alga, cell, bacterium, prokaryote, flagellum, etc., I wonder whether they could not be better dealt with in a separate journal, leaving Nature to deal more with science.
