Should have been a Feature Request 😁

Honestly, I’ve been having a hard time evaluating if this thread is for real. I had to click through to the Fig Fanatic article to see that this thread is a follow-up to [What inaturalist is, versus what it should be](https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/what-inaturalist-is-versus-what-it-should-be/58336). And as it turns out, one of my replies in that thread still applies in this one:
