Hi, @zebs. It's great that you want to help out, but mammals are pretty carefully curated. I would be careful about making swaps involving taxa that have established Taxon Framework Relationships (like this one) in the future because they can mess with the data on the site.
Also, please add Taxon Framework Relationships for any swaps you commit. It is important for researchers, the userbase, and curators to understand any discrepancies between iNaturalist and our external taxonomic references.
Unintended disagreements occur when a parent (B) is
thinned by swapping a child (E) to another part of the
taxonomic tree, resulting in existing IDs of the parent being interpreted
as disagreements with existing IDs of the swapped child.
Identification
ID 2 of taxon E will be an unintended disagreement with ID 1 of taxon B after the taxon swap
If thinning a parent results in more than 10 unintended disagreements, you
should split the parent after swapping the child to replace existing IDs
of the parent (B) with IDs that don't disagree.
