Talk:autocannibalism

This is astoundingly pointless and ought be removed.

I disagree. What if someone is trying to find the word "ouroboros", but can't think of where to start?

The word is legitimately used — often in slightly metaphorical terms (e.g. with regard to proteins or neurons) but sometimes for animals or humans, e.g. (1990) "...found no such autocannibalism mentioned in the many dismal accounts of the Nazi concentration camps".
