The answer is that even snaked might b= e called "worms". If you don't like it invent a new classific= ation.

A more convincing example are words for taste:
We can classify su= bstances into: acids, alkali, sugars, salts etc.
And we can class= ify them into: sweet, sour, umami, salty ...

They are completely different and almost never intersect.
Almost.=
Because "salty" coincides with "alkali" = as alkali can be made the prototype of salty taste. Thus we need the same w= ord for both classifications.
