Wow. That is funny. Kind of like how beta beta was intentionally depicted ambiguously. It's almost as if Oda wanted us to think one thing, but left clues to tell us that the opposite was true, prompting much speculation from fans, both from those who picked up on the clues and from those who took him at face value.

But instead of getting confirmation to settle matters of canonicity, we just argue about which is more logical. That's how canon works, right? Canon is just whatever you believe after reading the manga- or is that speculation? I can never tell the difference ...
