It's really good to mention highly used namespaces, but the taxonomy prefix is a perfect example of how different communities reuse the same prefix to actually mean different things
Identifiers.org didn't do us a big favor in being non-specific with this one, and the Bioregistry tried to steer this on course by using NCBITaxon as the preferred prefix for this resource
I don't think that the target audience will appreciate this nuance in a short document, so i'd suggest using a different example
