* Most of the Octarians are octopus tentacles, real life octopodes have brains in each of their tentacles. So, perhaps the tentacle Octarians are cultivated from a "parent" Octarian by chopping them off and letting them fight for them.

* The Octolings and Octostriker stages in single player involve a group of Octarians invading certain areas of the surface; then how come Agent 3 is the only one there to stop them? Well, these stages take place either at night or what seems to be dawn. Remember how one of the earlier Sunken Scrolls said that, during the start of the Great Turf War, Octarians were winning because Inklings couldn't wake up early enough in the morning to defend themselves? A century worth of history or not, some things just don't change.
