       | Related question, would these be considered "fasteners", or some
       | other thing entirely?

         | the last fastener as the lack of twisting makes the term twist-
         | tie suspect.

           | clips, so the ones in the original article just look unusual
           | to me. I think I saw a couple when I was in the US though.
