How To Avoid Macro-Evolution Confusion?
The only place that the terms "macro-evolution" or "micro-evolution" are generally used, are in creationist rhetoric. They are not terms used by biologists. This is because there is no need to create distinct categories. In reality there is only "microevolution". Macro-evolution is not a different thing, merely an accumulation of many micro-evolutions.


  what benefits are there to such a broad category as macro-evolution?


None. Which is why such a term has been abandoned.
