- nostrademons 11y agoIs "number of species" really the metric of interest? I'd think that the best metric to measure the success of a clade would be something like "percentage of total biomass". After all, humanity is one species, yet few people would say primates are unsuccessful and in decline because humanity is taking over the globe and causing mass extinctions.
