This kind of level-headed consideration is why he was able to come to you with his concerns after, so good job there. I think you're on the right track with an open conversation about coming to you with these kinds of things before they happen. "I'm concerned about you keeping safe so could we please talk something like this through before you do it next time?" Would be the line I'd use but you obviously know your son better than me so YMMV. All in all I'm glad things worked out okay and hopefully this'll be a learning experience for mindfulness.

Some animals are big enough to just have fauna, nothing micro about them. See whale lice as an example.

"Bug" is a scientific word that refers to members of the sub-order Heteroptera. See assassin bugs, leaf-footed bugs, etc.

But yeah language is fluid and most people call any old arthropod a bug.

I wonder if they're banking on wireless chips lasting longer than physical ports. Though making them wireless also means batteries and charging ports, two parts notorious for failing.

The FDA actually requires that raw fish be frozen prior to consumption to kill parasites. Food Code 3-402.11-12.
