Iirc, for those interested, it's actually a mistranslation of the original Hebrew term.
The original term is tzelas, which is a bit ambiguous.
It could be rib, but no real way of knowing.

Why would an omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscience god allow his word to be mistranslated?

Underrated comment.
It obviously translates to baculum, the dick bone.
Which tracks perfectly with both the Bible refering to multiple bones, only a part of which were "taken", and modern Hebrew speakers in the linked thread taking about how "rib" is probably the best translation.
It's also why Spider Monkeys are the second most Chosen primate, since they both lack a bacculum and had their own relative Spider Monkey Eve. Lacking only Spider Monkey Jesus. While Chimpanzees are mere animals, still having their dick bones.
