You're absolutely right! I don't know what I was thinking here - I blame my supervisor :) One of the other things that my old research group did was crosslinking of hemoglobin which has iron as its central atom vs. magnesium in chlorophyll. I find it pretty amazing the structural similarity between the heme structure for metal ions in these two very different use cases.
(Also as with anything in biology, there is no doubt some weird organism that has like a cadmium or similar in its chlorophyll, I don't know)
