Not rare, but uncommon. Not sure if there's a Lemmy equivalent but r/treessuckingonthings shows trunks absorbing all sorts of things including branches
Yes, this is why I chose not to say that it was impossible.
Perhaps the mathematical definition of a tree is wrong in stating there should be not loops, or should change to another metaphor.
