Etymology

The specific name is from the Latin prefix medio and the word latus, which means medially and broad, referring to the shape of the valva.

gollark: It's probably so they can mildly simplify their backend and/or do data mining and/or prepare everyone for some Bedrock-style "marketplace" of badness.
gollark: By "new and improved" they mean "hahaha you will have a Microsoft account now, this is not optional".
gollark: https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/java-edition-moving-houseThis seems quite bad.
gollark: The "summon large amounts of bees riding sheep" bit is easy enough, but it's feeding into a "disapionator" outside the big triangular base there, and someone somehow rigged it to draw in bees, kill them when they get near a central thing, and produce cool particle effects while doing so.
gollark: No, that was earlier.
