The horrifying realization that technically, centaurs DO have six limbs (four horse legs + two human arms), which matches the defining characteristic of insects in taxonomy. By definition, insects belong to class Insecta and have three pairs of jointed legs. This creates the perfect taxonomic nightmare where mythology crashes into biology with catastrophic results. Every biologist's brain just short-circuited trying to process this technically correct but spiritually devastating classification. Next up: mermaids are actually fish, not mammals, despite having human upper bodies. I need to lie down now.
