:At this point, I would make the following suggestion: current information is sufficient to cancel the proposal and implement the changes, and if notable information surfaces at a later date, we can make a discussion then and determine if it is direct and unambiguous enough to undo the changes. It's almost certain that we won't get all of the needed info before the proposal ends.

:All fair points. I want to add a neutral point: prior to Needlous, Supaini was "replaced" in K64 with a near-equivalent, {{iw|wikirby|Punc}}. It looks basically like Supaini/Togezo but with the ''Mario'' influence filed off, making it look like you guys were describing them: a black orb with a spiked helmet, rather than a flattened black oval with a spiked turtle shell. It rolls by bending its helmet into pillbug-like segments and is much slower at rolling than Supaini was, but I'd find it odd they wouldn't just treat it as an appearance of Supaini/Togezo rather than a suspiciously similar enemy (in a game ''full'' of returning enemies, especially from KDL3) if they hadn't found some reason to stop using Supaini/Togezo. The only other similar case is {{iw|wikirby|Sosuke}} being replaced with {{iw|wikirby|Bumber}}, which has the excuse of Parasol no longer being a copy ability and thus wanting to distance from that, and I guess not wanting to model {{iw|wikirby|Blipper}}'s goggles and instead adding in the mildly similar {{iw|wikirby|Flopper}} as the main "fish" enemy... and I'm not going to entertain the notion that Ado and Adeleine are different characters, so I won't count that, nor will I count NZs replacing Waddle Dees since they were imagined as a singular character for that game.
