The main disadvantage of the generally accepted trinary system of around-species nomenclature is the lack of a species concept. This leads to the fact that any lower taxon can be declared a species or subspecies, and any combination of these taxa of arbitrary rank is correct and legitimate, by definition, and therefore cannot even be discussed ...
