It does need to be brought up. It also hints towards the topic of the propagation of carpet pythons in the post industrial US in general. What species of woods are we using in the flooring of our homes? Does owning carpet pythons enhance the feel of our homes? If we use native australian hardwoods, will our carpet pythons feel more comfortable? Or will they feel uncomfortable because of the obvious pun? I for one feel that since i live 10minutes from Long Island Sound i should get a coastal carpet python. Tiffany got a jungle because she lives in tropical florida. Did tim make the right choice by getting a jungle jag sib? I can't really answer that. Its between Tim and his hard wood, floors.
