      The mitochondria enables most, if not all, piracy.

      One could say it powers most, if not all, piracy.

            It’s fascinating, I’ve heard it online and in person from multiple nationalities.
            In our case it’s not so special because my mother tongue is German…

            Your comment about speaking Austrian reminded me of one of my many visits to Germany. I was at the Oktoberfest in München and my group got chatting to a local, whereupon he proudly proclaimed: “Here… you are not in Germany; you are in Bavaria!” Made us chuckle :-)

              Austria is atleast a real country (other than Bavaria) and from a recent travel to Vienna I can tell that Austrian is - while closely related to German - a language on its own.
