This classification system is not compatible with the traditional ASBE (All Species By Evolution) tree and data cannot be converted directly from one to the other because the lines of logic run crosswise between the two systems.

Perhaps you could provide an example of two distinct kinds that do not share a common ancestor, and provide your evidence and reasoning for your claim. What, How, for example, do you classify creatures that share features of your kinds?

As an example of two distinct kinds in my classification system which are unrelated I would say that hawk and pig ought to be two separate kinds.

As to things like whether cats are the same kind (of course I'm referring to kinds in my classification system here) as dogs, or other more tricky stuff, I haven't yet sorted all out. I hope to work more at it and try real world data with it and see how (if) it works, but haven't had the chance yet.

Does that help?
