Only God knows why we have an appendix.

Even in our language, it’s something leftover.

The appendix is just assumed to be useless. There were some late findings about it secreting certain substances of essence. I’ll search for it and post it here.

Some of these medicos are too enthusiastic to label parts “useless” and “unnecessary”. That sort of thinking is wrong.
