No worries. I guess it sounded a bit antagonistic, I apologize for that. I am actually interested in the idea, I was just a little frustrated that it was hard to figure out what was different about the language.

It just sounded honest. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's mainly just an issue of manpower on our end (we do accept doc contributions, but probably we should be doing it); having fresh reader eyes on it like this is still valuable though.

That's absolutely fair, and tbh probably the problem. I've probably been thinking about the concept for so long that it doesn't occur to you that the phrase wasn't that well known.

I remember a multi-year project in college I was trying to explain about, and blew right through "potential energy surface" and lost him completely. I didn't realize it was something I'd have to explain.
