  Le seul moyen d’opérer les distinctions nécessaires en respectant les règles de la taxonomie, est de considérer le Prot’homme et l’Homme comme deux sous-espèces et de les munir chacun d’une double qualification, spécifique et subspécifique, par redoublement de la qualification pour la sous-espèce courante (Homo sapiens sapiens) selon la règle habituelle
