Proposedmove.png It has been proposed that this page be moved to Tub line ponytail due to the following reason: There's barely anything "integral" about this, so substitutive nomenclature isn't a good idea and causes unnecessary confusion. "Tub" and "line" are established and clearly visible; "ponytail" would be the name for the five-cell tail-plus-one-cell component (halfway between a "tail" and "hooked tail").

Integral with tub and tail is a 12-cell still life.
