    I also wondered if this was a reference to the longevity of some crustaceans like lobster, which can live for at least decades. But I think it’s more about thinking of somewhat nonsensical, non-sequitur topics as one often does when daydreaming.

      lobster, which can live for at least decades.

      Based on the links OP supplied, that’s seemingly only true of lobsters which are in cold-water environments, which slows their metabolisms down.

      Yup, hence my side-note.
