Is a Nine-Tentacled Octopus a Nonopus?

Last fall, a seafood shop owner in Marugame, Japan spotted this rare Octopus with nine tentacles. While he apparently boiled and sold the oddity to a “lucky customer”, I think he may have generated more marketing appeal if he had tried to pit it against theHenry the Hexapus or had it try out for Gimme Gimme Octopus.
