This has been bugging me almost since day one. Am I the only one who sees that the Castanevine has the wrong name? The wiki article says it is covered by a "collection of castanet-like apparatuses." But, if you look at it closely, those are not at all castanets, they're valves, as on a saxophone or clarinet. It's clear in any picture of the decoration, and especially obvious in the background image (wallpaper) used for this wiki.

Castanets are two solid discs connected by a hinge, which clap together. The picture of the Castanevine clearly shows that those are valves covering holes in the plant. In fact, they're very similar to the valves on the tail of the Sox.

Makes me wonder whether it was originally supposed to be called something else...the saxovine? The climbinet? And then the name got changed but not the artwork? Or vice-versa, and the castanevine name was always intended, and the artist got the image wrong?

Anyway. Just an observation.
