As much as I am one to jump on people when they ask for our taxonomy to be phylogenetic, that's not what's going on here: Opdagon arguably made a poor choice of words; polyphyly is a far more general concept under which definition most of our taxa, with single-species taxa being the main exceptions, are polyphyletic.

The real point here is that, if you give two different species the same genus but different families, *both* species will appear on *both* family pages. This is indeed a real problem, albeit not a template-breaking one.
