That situation is the most I’ve ever been involved in internet lore. My partner showed me a Reddit post of a jackdaw where the top comment was Unidan calling it a crow (pretending to be an authority on it as he usually did) and I told her to correct him (in a friendly way) because jackdaws are one of my favourite birds and I want people to know what they are. This was only a few weeks before he had his meltdown over the subject.

Kind of funny to know that it bothered him enough that he would implode his entire internet persona over it.

Is it on the same planet? Yes. No one's arguing that.

As someone who is a geologist who studies continents, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls common loons North American. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing.

If you're saying "North America" you're referring to the tectonic grouping of the Americas, which includes things from North America to Central America to South America.
