Is M30712050 that specific squirrel, or just the general category of squirrels? 172.69.247.56 17:57, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
- The debate about the Ship of Theseus suggests that every ship gets its own number, so why not every squirrel? Although then the numbers would be much larger. Barmar (talk) 18:04, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
- ...and the list would be much messier. Yorkshire Pudding (talk) 18:32, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
could the numbers have been picked to represent something rather than be entirely random? like 41592 coming from pi and 137 being FSC... idk maybe i'm just reading too much into it... 162.158.186.11 18:09, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
