The really real answer:
Alternative: maths have taken over our brainz:
Oh no, not this rabbit hole again!? Bc you just know it always goes deeper no matter how far you go, e.g.:
Meh, people on January 6 showed up as “heroes” and “patriots” to “defend” the Constitution of the United States of America, and “Pro-Life” people who are “Christian” (except all that about not heaping heavy burdens onto others without offering to lift a finger to help, and the workers deserving their wages, and not borrowing money, and actually giving a fuck about anyone else in the world, etc.) are now responsible for more excess deaths in America than all of our wars combined, and this doesn’t even begin to add in yet the deaths from disallowing “abortions” (much less things like tumors, ectopic scenarios, necrotic tissues etc.), or poverty, which would make it far more so, many times over.
TLDR: people, especially politicians, sometimes lie. Get used to it, bc fascism is rising all around the entire world, and the proper answer if you don’t want to be literally killed (sorry for being so serious) is “yes, sir” (bc it’s usually a rich old white cis het dude, amirite!?:-P). The golden heyday of Science and Truth and Enlightenment are over, sadly, and the dark days have come. 😿 We best be prepared to exist in them. And even… learn to smile at the simple beauties that we manage to find? :-)
I can quit anytime I want! /s

Internet search confirmation (bc apparently in this formulation, everything said on the internet is true - isn’t that like a prior or something:-D):
So then the integral would look like…?
I read this all wrong…
We shall call him Lil Cthulhu:-)
I will never shut up about viruses - they are aliens on earth, or like something I dunno but they are so fucking cool!
A monophyletic clade must include all descendants. A taxonomic group itself can hold anything.
Viruses can also integrate DNA into cells and it sticks there forever sometimes, thus bypassing the tree entirely (making it a network, i.e. no longer acyclic thus no longer a tree).
There is a lot of weirdness in the world, stranger than people have dreamed.:-P
Holy shit, this is the most “this is fine” meme I’ve ever seen! :-P
But to add a splash of color:
