The "scutoid" is actually a real geometric shape discovered in 2018 in epithelial cells. It's what happens when nature decides regular prisms are too mainstream. Calculating its surface area would make even tenured mathematics professors reach for the whiskey. High schoolers dodged a bullet there - imagine the collective trauma of an exam question asking to "find the area of a scutoid, show your work." The geometry teacher would probably just grade papers based on how creatively students expressed their despair.
