Uses

It is known to produce a biflavonoid that shows activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.[2]

gollark: Also, micropython doesn't have them.
gollark: Yes, but there's no "language spec" with those as far as I know. I mean, there's probably a PEP somewhere for them.
gollark: It's inconsistent, only has old not very good libraries, often requires third-party libraries to be remotely usable (HTTP, datetimes) and is vastly bloated.
gollark: Python's standard library is big but mostly just really bad.
gollark: But not ones for the entire stdlib. Java *might*, Python almost certainly doesn't because it has so many random bad modules.
