The only discrepancy is the one you are simply making up.
You like to run off museum and universities and their research like you are somewhat involved in it. Let's face it Darius, you are not.
Full of "Scientific facts"' but you seem to not back it up with any reference.
I am fairly certain that in recent years, scientific researchers do indeed have their hands on PO. Polypterus Ansorgii. Prove otherwise. Sure there may be some institutes that don't have them in their possession, but there are many many institutes that have.
Prove me wrong.
They are very same fish as the wild caught specimens you see people have in their collections here on MFK.
Why not provide some back up along with your "facts and findings"? Until you do that you are just coming across as someone who suddenly appears here asking questions about Polypterus, then suddenly having this mass advanced knowledge of the fish telling those of us that have been discussing them here for years, we are all wrong, you are right.
Well, sorry to tell you this but are you blind? Can you not see NOBODY here is taking you serious until you have some kind of evidence to back your theories up.
Your attitude toward everyone that corrects you (or tries to) is just making you come across as a smug know it all, who actually knows not so much.
