Naming a fungus a sponge - Yeshka

This quote was added by yeshka
In taxonomy, the name Spongiforma squarepantsii is not actually a species of sponge. It is the name of a fungus. The naming rules say that new names just have to sound Latin, not actually BE Latin. What is the point in coming up with a Latin sounding name of Sponge Bob Square Pants, if it isn't even for a species of sponge?
