Shouldn't the crystal ponies be a 4th type of pony and not a type of Earth pony? I don't think they've ever been refered to as Earth ponies on the show. As far as lore goes the Earth ponies have a magical affinity towards plants and animals while the Crystal ponies magic is tied towards the crystal heart.

I guess the counter arguement comes from the founding of equestria by only 3 tribes of ponies but it is unclear how that history intersects with that of the crystal empire.

From an organizational standpoint having more categories should make things more manageable.
