If the young Lu-Tze went to her to learn The Way of Mrs. Cosmopilite and is over 800 years old at the time of the events described in Thief of Time, how can she still be alive to be gallivanting in the time of Moving Pictures? Is is that Lu-Tze persuaded Qu to send him forwards in time and then bring him back once he'd learnt? --Knmatt 22:19, 16 July 2007 (CEST)

Spelling?

In the earlier books her surname appears as Cosmopolite, but in Thief of Time it's "Cosmopilite" (at least, in the Corgi print and Apple Book eBook editions I have). Has this ever been addressed? -- Guybrush (talk) 05:18, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

Whadya gonna do about Morporkian spelynge? I see the illustration is labelled with the "o"; I don't know if Knmatt had the same problem or it was just a typo. --Old Dickens (talk) 15:40, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
