Let me explain (for the third time): the Outlaws are a species. If you accept this "fact" then why is it absurd to consider that the Khanzumers are indeed a species? On the other hand, show me where Lanning said "the Khanzumers aren't a species".

Because the Outlaws aren’t a species, they’re a grouping of interrelated sub-species, and Khanzumers are a
class comprised of several unrelated species that have developed similar characteristics through a shared lifestyle.
Lorne describes them as “becom[ing] their own species” as a shorthand metaphor to illustrate how the different species in this class now have a shared lifestyle that makes them
like a single species, not to literally say they
are a single species.
