is the fascinatingness of the discovery. The means by which they found it doesn't seem exactly new. Seems kinda like the way they found out the source of the oxygen plants 'exhale'... but the idea that an animal has these plant organelles, or the genes related to photosynthesis, that's the WOW part. There are animals like the echidna or the platypus that have traits of both mammals and reptiles or whatever... but the animal with plant traits thing is definitely new.
