Every day I wake up grateful I am not a plant taxonomist. What a fucking nightmare (and I say this as someone who loves grasses, but also recognizes the harsh reality that boundaries are fluid and categories permeable and the plants themselves don't care). Sometimes you just have to say, "fuck it, Setaria spp." and move on.
