I'll admit, you'd have a hard time selling Klingons to me as Furry. Casting logic to the wind, I just don't perceive any animal in them. They seem just a variation on humans.
But, by the same token, it doesn't represent any kind of problem to me if I find Klingon art on Fur Affinity.
Actually, I have a parody song that makes sport of how human all the aliens on Star Trek look, and how that seems so naturally implausible.
Move over to Doctor Who, and you'll see some more obviously Furry ALFs.

Well, I think it's pretty obvious there is considerable apprehension and opposition to what you propose. Maybe it's not such a good idea.
It certainly would be unprecedented for any fandom to just redefine itself so drastically. Particularly a fandom like ours that has always been concerned with defining what we are, rather than what we think we ought to be.
I don't think you realize what a drastic change you're proposing, and what extreme measures would be necessary to get the fandom to go along with it.
