I verry much like these concepts, although I do not think they should be classified together... most often, jawed animals (fig. 1 and 4) are not classified along with jawless animals (fig. 2 and 3).

Fig 3 has jaws like a cookie cutter shark along with a pair of crushing jaws on the inside but as they get older they become stationary and their jaws atrophy so they develop a vascularized plume very much like that of giant tube worm using chemosynthesis and specialized bacteria to help them turn compounds into organic molecules. So basically they are tube worms of chrysaoris but the stay in the clade of advanced polygnaths because of the I guess larval stage you can call it.
