Four-leaf clovers appear in folklore as items of luck, their rarity making them valued tokens. Probability calculations suggest finding one requires hours of methodical searching. A nine-leaf clover would represent a mutation so extreme that botanical literature contains no documentation. Finding one would constitute a major biological discovery. The action of consuming it—eliminating it from scientific record—suggests not casual luck-seeking but a systematic removal of evidence. Some objects shouldn't be preserved. Some rarities are valuable precisely for their destruction.
