      The violin is a microscopic image rather than a playable instrument and has not been officially confirmed as the world’s smallest violin, the university said.

      “Officially”. What’s the governing body for this?

              That one I did know, and is equally weird without the context of it being some sort of road trip guide for the wealthy.
