I feel like it's time to reframe this from "there is no such thing as a tree", "there is no such thing as a fish" to "trees and fishes (and crabs) are very competitive types of life, and many phylogenetic lines are pressured towards those traits".

Biology has gotten real stupid about verbiage and communication lately, in my opinion.

That's correct and all, but you gotta admit that "everything becomes crab" makes for better memes.
