Literally taught my son about Prince Philip a few hours ago. And learned domains is a thing now. Wish I could show him this for the serendipity but def no lol

i think theyre referring to the mnemonic

King Phillip Came Over From Great Spain

=

Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species

and theyre saying they should add Domains to this (that precedes Kingdom)

Ohh, they learned that domains exist. Silly me. Lol I was ready for some epistemology, ngl.
