Marsh thought the brontosaurus was a differnt type of lizard than the apatosaurus. The apatosaurus existed when he found what he thought was the brontosaurus. It's more like calling the fossil of a horse a unicorn because it's skull got mixed up with one from a rhino.

Fossils get reclassified / renamed all the time. The animal depicted on the Sinclair logo existed. You're running around telling people that it didn't.
