All Subtypes are defined to a specific card type (or two, in the case of Arcane). This is the rule baggage on Tribal as a Supertype, giving a creature subtype to a non-creature card.
Coward is simply unique in that it is a creature type never printed on a card nor token. (Saproling exists in a similar place, it exists on tokens but not on actual cards.)
Apparently my memory is terrible today - I fixed my post.
Lapsing on all the things with a Mistform/Changeling ability isn't really too important, as Boldwyr is the key here. That's the card that defines Coward as a creature subtype, which means everything else that cares about creature subtypes cares about it now. Adaptive Automaton can become a Coward if you want it to be.
This is the rule baggage on Tribal as a Supertype,
Tribal is a type, not a supertype.

I always get that one wrong, I'm not sure how I keep forgetting.
Thanks for that clarification. The rest of my point still stands that it's a type that makes it so you can put the wrong subtype (for the other types on the card) onto a card.
So, will there be an Arachnophobia spell that creates a green 2/4 Spider creature token with reach?

MTGS Wikia Article about "New World Order"
Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
Nice, works well against the changelings that will be running around limited and maybe we will get some more coward cards in the set as well for extra gravy.

I was surprised to find no specific ruling on gatherer attached to falter, flash of defiance, or goblin locksmith ... but gruul charm has a ruling that lays it out.
“
If you choose the first mode, no creature without flying will be able to block that turn, including creatures that lose flying and creatures without flying that enter the battlefield after Gruul Charm resolves”
Now we need a legendary Boldyr Intimidator to make a commander. Also a new coward Norin who can't run from this and blocks for enough to live if this targets him.

Love it.
It also has some cute flavortext attributed to Norin the Wary to seal it. Solid Limited card, amusing flavor. Get wrecked Changelings.
Took me a sec to figure out how to post the image. Should be updated now.

That is probably because only that creature from Loryn, Boldwyr Intimidator makes things cowards but it is a creature class I believe. https://mtg.gamepedia.com/Coward

Yes, the only cards that have or grant the Coward creature type are Mutavault, the Mistform creatures, Mistform Ultimus, all cards with changeling, and Boldwyr Intimidator's activated ability.
Hilariously, Norin the Wary is a Warrior, not a Coward...although he'll still run like hell whenever someone casts this.
Mutavault? Mistform Sliver?
Not sure why anyone would, but you can do that.
Well, he's been around since the Ice Age...
