Taxonomy

Prior to 2014, Ramphiculus subgularis or Ptilinopus subgularis was known as the Maroon-chinned fruit dove, and also encompassed what is now Oberholser's fruit dove (Ptilinopus epia) and the Sula fruit dove (Ptilinopus mangoliensis), following Sibley and Monroe (1990, 1993).

gollark: Even if that's true it is *much* harder to get good enough at assembly to work on it easily than it is to get good at python or whatever.
gollark: The assembly version is more complicated and harder to write/understand/maintain.
gollark: What, that if you meddle with a comparison and use a weird/flawed metric your thing looks better? Yes.
gollark: In any case, basing simplicity on the length of a fizzbuzz program would be kind of weird and put codegolf languages on top.
