I’ve definitely heard Araucaria araucana called “monkey puzzle” quite often in English, and many people in Australia mistakenly call the bunya pine (Araucaria bidwillii) “monkey puzzle” as well because they are closely related species and look fairly similar (I’m from Australia). There are several species of Araucaria in Australia though, so many people would also be aware of the Norfolk Island pine (Araucaria heterophylla) and probably the hoop pine (Araucaria cunninghamii). I think some people who are familiar with the different species would probably understand that if you said “Araucaria” you would be probably be referring to Araucaria araucana.

I’m not sure if you’re joking (sorry), but a ‘crowned republic’ [0] is definitely a common way to characterise the effective political system of many constitutional monarchies today — in particular the UK, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand.

This will happen in most browsers (I’m on Safari 14, macOS 11.2). The popup-blockers in most browsers will allow a popup if it is opened directly because of user input, such as a button click — a fairly simple measure which can be implemented by only allowing certain APIs to work within an event handler, for example.
There are a few Web APIs which work this way — for example, you can’t make a page fullscreen unless you do so in response to user input/interaction [0].

You’re right, I was mistaken (and too late to edit my comment).
Out of interest, is there a page anywhere explaining the difference between RustEnhanced and Sublime-LSP + Rust Analyzer? I’ve got both installed, but when I enable Sublime-LSP + RustAnalyzer the experience and functionality is different enough that I assumed it was overriding RustEnhanced.
