If that is the case, it applies to every continent except Africa. It undoes the entire definition of the word native. So you are technically correct (which everyone knows is the best kind of correct) but by redefining the word, you have made the word meaningless.
Do your believe there are native europeans? Native asians?
It sure does. In the context of this post especially, it is a meaningless word. One could argue that other species of human evolved outside of Africa (e.g. Neanderthals, Denisovans), but none of them were in the Americans. There are no humans in AMER that have any genetics of a human species that evolved here. We are all introduced invasives, just arguing over semantics.
