Is (was?) the real Palo Alto a sequoia?  If so then fine.

Are you sure you spent 4 years at Stanford?

He did, but the Palo Alto was only a sapling back then, and nobody paid it any attention.

That is libelously untrue!  When Leland had me plant in on his new land he said, "Son, one day a mighty oak will grow from what you do today."  And I was there 6 years, thank you very much.

Very interesting... so the version on our block "S" resembles the older  ???"poor health" version than the current "healthy" version.  ???

Well, my daughter has been more into the tree than anyone else in the family, so I think she will like the fact that a) the person in the tree is female and b) that the tree has more feminine features.  I hesitate to say this given prior trees episodes of misbehavior (http://deadspin.com/5137438/horny-inebriated-stanford-tree-a-menace-to-decent-society), but I think the tree can be a positive roll model.

The trunk is round, so I would hope so.

Touché.  I left you a hanging curve, but you hit it well.
