It's a small concern, but it's something worth addressing. in many instances, hybrids have different characteristics than either their parent races or even the addition or combination of both. I think that enough is reason to create the appearance to ease research about them.

I'm not following your line of thinking. How does an appearances category help explain an individual's inherited characteristics? It's literally just a list of the comics et al in which the subject appears, and in this case the subject wouldn't even be that individual.

It's too general and too diverse a category for so few characters to wind up in them. For research purposes, you would always be better off using an individual character's page and appearances category.
