Perhaps, but that page you linked seems pretty clear that apes are related closer to old world monkeys than new world moneys, but are still not monkeys?
I don't really intend to argue semantics, but before my original reply to you I akimmed a good dozen links incluthat Wikipedia page and they all say apes and monkeys are related but different.
I literally quoted the part that says apes are monkeys by any definition of the word.
Oh shit sorry, it wasn't clear to me that it was a quote! It sounds like if you look too close then it's complicated!
