**In the case of Plant-infobox, Creature-infobox states exactly the same things, except with slightly more coherency and specificity. Also, the Logbooks classify moving plants as "Creatures" and other, stationary plants as research in a section called "Plantforms" (referring to Echoes there). | **In the case of Plant-infobox, Creature-infobox states exactly the same things, except with slightly more coherency and specificity.

**As for the Enemy-infobox, there is virtually no distinction between a creature and an enemy; I doubt anyone would have any trouble calling a [[Space Pirate]] an enemy, but those are roughly 50/50 split between classifications as an enemy and creature here. However, the Logbook classifies all Space Pirate lifeforms as Creatures, and not enemies. And then there's the problem of things like [[Grenchler]]s, where they are certainly hostile enough to be enemies, but don't follow Samus consciously like Space Pirates do. This system could also very well imply that creatures that damage Samus as part of the layout of the room (like [[Sandbat]]s) are enemies too, despite being non-hostile. So basically, I don't think that Enemy-infobox is necessary, since we have ample evidence that they can all be classified as Creatures. | **As for the Enemy-infobox, there is virtually no distinction between a creature and an enemy; I doubt anyone would have any trouble calling a [[Space Pirate]] an enemy, but those are roughly 50/50 split between classifications as an enemy and creature here.
