BTW, I realize that I used a non-standard, or '"incorrect" definition, if you will. Perhaps I should have called it a PEWC... but that stands for Pre-fab Explorien Wing Cockpit... so only the Cockpit moniker applies. Anyone have a better acronym for (...)

(...) Well, we could just refer to it as the M-F(ing) cockpit piece. But this is a family show. :D I hadn't heard POOP defined as "Piece of One Purpose", I knew it only as the insidious "Piece of other Pieces", which is the evilest thing Lego has (...) (25 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I think a SPUD is more like the trees or the li'l flowers... I don't really think of a cockpit window as a "decorative" element, though it is certainly a single purpose element. How about SPUC for single purpose ugly cockpit/canopy? Doesn't (...) (25 years ago, 16-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) As others in this thread mentioned, your definition is actually a SPUD, which has many definitions but is often known as Single Purpose UnLEGOish Design. -Shiri P.S. <plug> (URL) (25 years ago, 16-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)
