They are supposed to be grown from spores, so what use are ork nipples?
What use are nipples on males?
Lick one and find out
Hmmm. Can’t say I’ve licked one personally, but I see what you’re seeing. I guess I meant an actual use for them. More of a rhetorical question I guess.

Licking is an actual use.
It is. I wasn’t being specific enough, sorry. Actual use in terms of evolutionary fitness. There are no reasons for them evolutionarily other than they are a byproduct of fetal development.
That’s the thing with natural selection though, as long as a trait isn’t deleterious and it’s common enough it’ll generally stick around. There’s no pressure for males to not have nipples.
Totally agree with your point. But it’s also not something that will actively promote fitness.
Doesn’t matter. There’s no reason to not have nipples, and going down the evolution rabbit hole to change that isn’t worth the random mutations that are more likely to just straight up kill males during development or something. In biology fitness just means the ability to successfully reproduce, not actually who’s stronger or more efficient. Your entire body is built on the concept of, “good enough to get the job done.”
