    It’s honestly disrespectful to assume people don’t already understand this. And that they aren’t simply using a commonly understood shorthand to convey a simple idea. It’s not a failure of their intelligence but rather of your ability to give people the grace they need to communicate an idea

      I didn’t degrade intelligence, just asking if we can stop using because it doesn’t help others who aren’t in the science space. I’m saying this in an open forum. Many people that say it do not understand this. They think that gravity is just absent. I was giving some context to help others.

      Hope this helps others! :)
