Why do birds float? Petition to exterminate floating birds.

This is like:
Please remove all magic from the game, there is no magic in RL too. (^-^)

That analogy fails to work on account of the fact that birds are not magical creatures.

I'm tired of these games resting on 'symbolical representation' when we are in an age where that is no longer necessary. People ask for a suspension of disbelief but I ask for an attempt at reality.

Birds on Earth are not magical creatures. Birds on Eorzea may very well be. Really, the presence of magic in a world should affect the biology of that world. And did you miss the video of the hovering kestrel? Or are you just willfully ignoring it because it weakens your position?

I don't mean to sound rude, but your pitiful act of clutching at straws ("duh it's just magic") does not actually weaken my position.

Okay, so you're ignoring the video of the real-world hovering kestrel. Got it.
That's the part that I said weakened your position, not the magic part. The magic part was simply a rebuttal of your statement that birds are not magical creatures.

That analogy works perfectly, because you compared 'em (the birds) to eagles.

On another note, if I can't jump in the air no go*#@#ned bird better be able float either.
