Fair enough. What is the keybinding then?

M-x butterfly C-M-c(or RET), made in reference to the xkcd. Been in there since version 23.

Surely if it was made in reference to the comic, Emacs got the keybinding wrong?

> You can type ‘M-x butterfly C-M-c’ to run it. This is a permuted variation of ‘C-x M-c M-butterfly’ from url ‘https://xkcd.com/378/’.

From the documentation. I don't know why they didn't make it the same, but this is how it is, though maybe because M-butterfly is rather hard to press.
