** Alice calling the pegassus Danny a hippogriff wasn't recognizing an existing mythical concept (she lacks the background) but naming one based on shared linguistics. [[ShownTheirWork Alice was working backwards from etymology rederiving the common name. She mistook thought pegasus wings resembled a bird of prey and recognized the horse body - essentially saying "bird of prey-horse".]] Meanwhile pegassus's etymology is derived from either spring or well associated with the myth or lightning which leaves her utterly puzzled at the apparent nonsequitor - the creature has nothing to do with lightning and no more relationship to springs than any other animal.
