   The lesser panda is not even remotely related to the giant panda.  If   
   scientists had coined a new term instead of using "panda," they   
   wouldn't need to use the word "lesser."  Using the term is the reason   
   that the creature suffers an inferiority complex.   
      
   Similarly, people who live in the Lesser Antilles are more likely to   
   suffer clinical depression than those in the Greater Antilles.   
      
   Even within our own bodies, the inferior vena cava is more inclined to   
   sprout an aneurysm vis-a-vis the superior vena cava.   
      
   Labels like "inferior" and "lesser" result only in negative   
   consequences.
