The species is named in honour of Dr. Eugene G. Munroe.[1]

gollark: Also, no SD card slot.
gollark: But with an *iPhone*, it's all stuck together with copious amounts of glue, and they fuse the expensive screen bits to the cheaper glass bits.
gollark: With my *phone*, it certainly isn't easy but I think you can, with somewhat specialized screwdrivers or whatever, swap out the display and battery without paying too much. Though it's old so honestly it might be cheaper to just buy a new used phone.
gollark: With my laptop, *some* failed components (SSD, RAM, WiFi card) can be swapped out easily, at least.
