One reason I'd like to get the gismu making program working is to make an
experimental gismu for "crustacean". I think that expanding "jukni" to
include all arachnids was correct, but expanding it to all arthropods except
insects was wrong. The other groups of arthropods, besides those three, are
the myriapods (for which I coined the word "sortupcinki"), the other
chelicerates (horseshoe crab, sea scorpion, and maybe sea spider), and the
extinct trilobites.
