No, you didn't understand this. species=* is used a proper noun. It's the same as subject=* etc. Please stop with your reverts that are false documentation. Don't make ironic edits to prove your argument.
Tell others to discuss their (wrong) opinions on OSM. Don't edit for applications. https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property_talk:P1282#"_"_or_"_"_as_value

The names of species=* and subject=* are common for the individuals who belong to their class as they can be defined by its features.
  • Ideally, a key is one word, in lowercase, using British English if possible.
  • When that can't be the case, a key should be one concept, whose words are underscore_separated. (Any tags you like#Syntactic conventions for new tags).
  • Use lowercase ASCII chars and underscores (Any tags you like#Characters). Davileci (talk) 08:59, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
    First of all, if you want to change this, you should make a proposal, not edit the wiki page to make it not reflect the usage. But this is already de facto.
    You are conveniently missing the item above or below. This is an attribute "properties that "are unstructured and flexible, commonly containing mixed case, spaces, and other special characters.". Freeform text "use any characters you can think of".
    species=* and species:en=* would have the same format. Both are taxonomic names.
