For me I say that a truck with a cab longer than its bed is not a truck, but an SUV with an overgrown bumper.

There are no dragons in Skyrim and many other games because wyverns are NOT dragons. and don’t use the “well the overarching category is dragon so it still counts” argument on me, because I will dismiss it out of hand!

Wyverns aren't dragons? I thought the words were synonyms / interchangable ... (Note: I have never played Skyrim)

This picture illustrates the difference between the different dragon and dragon-adjacent creatures! My partner is also pretty adamant about this subject, so I've wound up developing the same pedantry.

Very pretty and on-point illustration!
