They are not spherical, they are ovoid. That's the first thing I thought. Sounds like some admins and teachers failed basic geometry. You can't even say it's a prolate spheroid (a stretched sphere) and thus somewhat a sphere, because it's not symmetrical.

Quite right. How about a good, old-fashioned vernal ovoid hunt?

If they are loopy enough to rename Easter eggs, they are certainly not going to get the “ovoid” right.

Sorry, they were out protesting during that geometry class.
