I actually have no opinion on this bird issue, I just wanted a chance to dig up and old battle that I lost and try to win it anew. ;)
The whole problem is that "correct" is not an objective term. We can have a wokring definition which we follow within the confines of Wikipedia, but need to recognize it as such. Our working definition has been by and large pretty conservative, but flexible. Which seems to me to be reasonable.
