Inactive taxon/taxon split glitch?

When the taxon split bumps up to common ancestor, users are required to add IDs to specify which output taxon they intended. So adding an Anemone sensu stricto genus ID + explicit disagreement is the way to go – that’s the way to reinstate the disagreement.


It also may help to think of this situation with a different output genus in mind.

ID1: Anemone americana
ID2: Anemone (genus, sensu lato), disagreeing with A. americana b/c, say, the photos don’t show enough details to distinguish from A. acutiloba

----species taxon change and genus taxon split-----

ID1: A. americana --> Hepatica americana
ID2: Anemone sensu lato —> tribe Anemoneae

Now IDer 2 must add their new ID, Hepatica (genus) + explicit disagreement with H. americana.
