A plant species important for studying the evolution of flowering plants. From the article: "Amborella is of great interest to plant systematists because molecular phylogenetic analyses consistently place it at or near the base of the flowering plant lineage. That is, the Amborellaceae represent a line of flowering plants that diverged very early on (more than 130 million years ago) from all the other extant species of flowering plants" and "Since Amborella is apparently basal among the flowering plants, the features of early flowering plants can be inferred by comparing derived traits shared by the main angiosperm lineage but not present in Amborella." Because of its importance in plant evolution, its genome (the entirety of its DNA) have been sequenced. From Pillon 2008, cited in the article: "The disappearance of Amborella trichopoda would imply the disappearance of a genus, a family and an entire order, as well as the only witness to at least 140 million years of evolutionary history." I nominated this because User: Marchantiophyta mentioned it in here and I decided to see if I can explain its vitality.

Bubble sort is a toy sorting algorithm that is exclusively used to motivate sorting algorithms in computer science courses. It is never used for anything in the real world. I think we should definitely remove it but since we are still slightly under quota in this section, we can also swap in merge sort which is another sorting-optimal O(nlogn) algorithm that is frequently used in external sorting on big data systems or timsort which is a variant of merge sort that is optimized to perform better on real-world data and is the default sorting algorithm used by Python and Java.

A plant species important for studying the evolution of flowering plants. From the article: "Amborella is of great interest to plant systematists because molecular phylogenetic analyses consistently place it at or near the base of the flowering plant lineage. That is, the Amborellaceae represent a line of flowering plants that diverged very early on (more than 130 million years ago) from all the other extant species of flowering plants" and "Since Amborella is apparently basal among the flowering plants, the features of early flowering plants can be inferred by comparing derived traits shared by the main angiosperm lineage but not present in Amborella." Because of its importance in plant evolution, its genome (the entirety of its DNA) have been sequenced. From Pillon 2008, cited in the article: "The disappearance of Amborella trichopoda would imply the disappearance of a genus, a family and an entire order, as well as the only witness to at least 140 million years of evolutionary history." I nominated this because User: Marchantiophyta mentioned it in here and I decided to see if I can explain its vitality.

Bubble sort is a toy sorting algorithm that is exclusively used to motivate sorting algorithms in computer science courses. It is never used for anything in the real world. I think we should definitely remove it but since we are still slightly under quota in this section, we can also swap in merge sort which is another sorting-optimal O(nlogn) algorithm that is frequently used in external sorting on big data systems or timsort which is a variant of merge sort that is optimized to perform better on real-world data and is the default sorting algorithm used by Python and Java.
