Christian Unitarianism still exists, y'know, it wasn't replaced by Unitarian Universalism. (Although just to muddy the waters further, there are also Christian Unitarian Universalists! Religion. What're you gonna do.)

Anyway, if you dig deep enough, every religion is a renegade branch of an earlier one. That's how it works!

That said, I will clarify that the note is talking about this dimension's version of English Unitarianism, not Universalism.
