Follow-up Comment #8, bug #62839 (project octave):

"again, even though matlab is inviting users to open up and modify the
function with their own text,  DON'T."

If we are to add a "why" function that is similar in spirit to the Matlab
function, I will argue strongly against copying the outputs exactly, or even
paraphrasing them.

And, really, it seems silly and unimaginative to me to copy an easter egg like
this.  If we want to add easter eggs to Octave, let's show some originality,
at least.
