I think a lot of folks don't realize most real and hard science is done with radio waves. The tech is often associated with antiquated devices for music and news of erras by gone, but scientifically speaking, radio waves are pretty high tech. Electromagnetic Radiation has it's own brand problems though. We really new words not associated with early use cases.

Sadly most people don't realize what they see is 'radio waves', hence OP's misguided comment.

What you claim is indeed so very sad, but I wouldn't gnash teeth or loose any sleep over it.
