That's only you using the terms like that. For example...the
largest snake is generally regarded as the green anaconda in most literature, whereas the
longest would be a retic. It's cool to have your own definitions aside from the widely accepted definitions of terms, but perhaps consider clarifying to everyone else what you mean when you're using them especially on a forum like this so these little miscommunications occur less and those who are new won't be misinformed. We really don't have to put everything under the microscope if nobody is asking for help. He just posted to share how well his snake is doing.
