I mean seriously, missed opportunity or what?

As a newbie here but a trivia enthusiast, I gotta drop a factoid - squid groups are sometimes referred to as a 'shoal' or 'school'. Just doesn't have the same ring to it as 'squad'. Whoever named it must've not been a pun lover for sure. But hey, language evolves! So let’s start the trend, right?

Been thinking about this for ages, totally agree! The reason this isn't already a thing is because the word 'squid' actually comes from the scientific community, and they tend to use more technical terminology derived from Latin or Greek. Plus, 'squad' doesn't really have a scientific vibe to it, you know? Still, I'm all for starting a petition to make 'squad' the official term for a group of squids in casual conversation at least. #SquadGoals!
