I have nothing to add here.
It’s a magic number. What would we do without Ed Yong to explain this stuff to us?
They can be perpetually pregnant! Also, the diagram he included is informative, if not odd. Finally, this might be why marsupials like joeys are born so prematurely developed (they run out of space).
