Disagree - learning to classify morphological characteristics is learning the generalizable features. Especially given that some plants are going to have relatively few photos, knowing with high confidence some diagnostic factors and GPS could absolutely outperform the brute force approach.
This isn’t about hand tuned features, it’s about predicting the right thing.
Also, the approaches aren’t mutually exclusive.
