A lot of these (though not all) should also get a humanoid implication, or at least be implied to a tag that in itself implies humanoid.

Isn't implying to body-type generally a very bad idea?

Sometimes yes but not always; depends on the specific circumstance.

Even so, humanoid fictional species tend to be the usual exception for the rule; the rule is more for when like... fictional non-humanoid creatures are implied to something

If I put it like this: would it be possible to draw them as ponies and still have them recognizable as base species? If yes humanoid implication is a very bad idea. If not, do they actually work with twys?

Fair enough! Honestly this is a valid response to this predicament, and one I don't have a good answer for, ahaha. Still tho, nice argument, thanks for presenting it!

So, is yautja -> alien going to happen? There are now roughly 150 posts tagged with the former and not the latter, and about 120 for zerg.
