Rename the 'Human' body type to 'Humanoid' (accepted)
We've got the human species, and also a human body type. The latter should be called Humanoid instead, since that's the name of the body type: people say "humanoid aliens", and "humanoid monsters" to describe their shape, not "human aliens" (unless it's a sci-fi).

A humanoid body is not the same as a human body. The description is unclear what "human morphology" means in this case.
I guess, some traits are not used in practice like in theory. If it means humanoid it should be named humanoid. Perhaps it should be split into a "human" and a "humanoid" body type.
I think the meaning here was to utilize the fact that if you did find human profiles
you'd get both humans and human-like creatures. However, I don't see this as being a particular benefit since not all humanoids are humans.
I do agree on the initial point. Humanoid body type is fine. However, humanoid as a species is a bad idea. To me, anyway.
We don't have plans to rename the Human species to Humanoid. Demihuman already covers the humanoid species in general.
Got something to say?
