I don't know what a Special Paramecia is, and I'd rather not know until I find it out for myself in the the manga/anime.

As for how this Devil Fruit was allowed to be a Logia in the first place, it's because we've figured that anything that naturally occurs in nature can be considered a Logia fruit. As clay is a naturally occurring substance, this fruit was permitted to be a Logia. Granted, that was way back in 2011, and I'm sure significant changes must have been made to how Devil Fruits are classified now. Thing is though, I prefer to read the manga and watch the anime as it gets released here in the United States, and I greatly dislike spoilers for One Piece, so that's left me in an odd situation here.

So basically, even if I did change the class of this fruit from Logia to Special Paramecia, I wouldn't even know what makes a Special Paramecia so "special." Again, I'd have to catch up in the story to figure that out for myself. So until then, I'm running off old, (possibly) dated 2011 logic and will consider clay to be a natural substance (like sand, electricity, and so on,) and therefore treat it as a Logia until I learn more about the differences between Logias and Special Paramecias. Hopefully by then, I can make a proper response to your comment and either agree or disagree wholeheartedly on your claim.
