We include a class 'somatic cell'
def: "A cell of an organism that does not pass on its genetic material to the
organism's offspring (i.e. a non-germ line cell)." [GOC:tfm, ISBN:0721662544]
There are lots of cell types that probably should be classified here that are
not.
Ideally these would be autoclassified somehow.
As a sample, here is the set of most general classes under 'native cell' that
are not classified as somatic. Obviously some of these are very general and
should be left as unspecified, but some such as 'supporting' include epithelial
as a child, and epithelial is not classified as somatic, when it probably
should be.
I'll bet there are some weird invertebrate cases that defy assumptions here;
e.g. some cell types whose natural lineage is go from a specialized somatic
cell to a germ line cell....
