The problem with biology is that it attracts too many cool people. Especially those marine biologists studding sharks and shit. That's why taxonomy is one of the refuges for real pedantics and nerds. No danger of running into anybody with a tan in that department.

I'm guessing you meant studying, but studding sharks sounds like a very interesting and difficult job.

Maybe you're onto something, I don't know. But I've surely heard of terrible things people with a tan can do, so I'm not judging.
