But Reptiles are such a fascinating Class of Vertebrates!
But aren't we witnessing before our eyes their devolution into
invertebrates? Witness the widespread loss of any spine among them, especially in such notable specimens as Lindsey Graham and Kevin McCarthy.
And ironically it's happening in creationist fashion, in that it's working on the individual level instead of the population level (though their newly acquired spinelessness has spread faster through the population than the Omicron variant ever could).
How about Repellants?
A more descriptive one that I've heard might be "Repugnants".
