So the Fellowship of the Ring was made up of an elf, a dwarf, a human, a maiar and one hobnibble?

What do you mean? The meme has 8 hobbits which make a hobbyte

I interpreted it as showing that 8 hobbytes were equivalent to a hobbit. I didn’t see that it could be interpreted as saying each little frodo picture under the hobbyte was a hobbit until your comment.

The tetrahobbit is only just a few decades away.

No, but I think "Hobnibble" is something...

What about Hoblong? Or Hobshort. Or HobIEEE-floating-point.
