That seems crazy. All butterflies come from moths, so it'd make more sense for Papillon to mean moth. It's like calling everything from the order Rodentia a Capybara, or everything in Eulipotyphla a hedgehog, both things within those orders in smaller numbers.

Butterflies are considered to have evolved from moths.

As a moth aficionado, I'd say they're much more interesting. They evolved 90 million years before butterflies. There are also 9 times as many moth species as butterfly species. They're also more efficient at pollination than not only butterflies but bees. Go moths!

Like many of his posts, he didn't write this. It's coherent and contains no ranting tangents.

I wrote a book of short horror stories mostly on my phone in snippets, just using a notes app. Only the final edit was on a laptop.
