Sparassodonts are not marsupials. They are just related to them, so they are metatherian mammals though. But still Thyla is not a marsupial.

Read the title.
They may very have likely been marsupials, or a close relative that evolved from marsupials and still retained many of their similar features.

Nope, they are nested outside marsupiala. They are not true marsupials.

Yay, Wikipedia.

There is no fossil evidence to certify whether or not they were marsupials or placentals.

Read. the. title.

There literally is. They where metatherians. A separate branch. Not placentals nor marsupials. Their own lienage of metatherian mammals.

"They where metatherians. A separate branch. Not placentals nor marsupials. Their own lienage of metatherian mammals."

You're not even looking at your own posts. Metatherians are not a separate branch, they INCLUDE marsupials.

No big deal, there's talk about reshuffling marsupials themselves as well, dividing that into multiple orders.

And again, read. the. title.

Never said that metatherians where a separate branch. I said marsupials and sparassodonts where separate branches within metatheria.

You're clearly either trolling or suffering some sort of cognitive difficulty.
Again, you're not even reading your own posts and you keep contradicting them. You're quite literally arguing against yourself in order to pretend that you're arguing against what I had posted, which are facts.

9 hrs later, and you're still arguing something that was already posted in the title.
So 9hrs later, you've still failed to be the title, as well as failed to read your own comments.

You don't even know why it's been proposed that they weren't marsupials.
And there's a simple counter argument against that as well. Haven't even gotten to that, nor ever will, because you're just making up focus arguments for the sake of argument.

This is why you were banned from this stream by somebody else, as well as banned last year from a stream that I myself had created.

Dude, when I said separate branch I wasnt talking about methatheria. i was talking about sparassodonts specifically being their own separate branch of metatherians.

And yes there are reasons why they aremt considered true marsupials. And one of them is based on how distantly related they are from them.
