Understand that argument. It lowers the bar to entry for “Bitcoin”.
Language changes happen spontaneously, much like a mutation. Takes a significant amount of time for it to come into common parlance. Every generation unconsciously tries with slang. Few, if any, ever succeed over the long horizon.
I am all for better onboarding for newcoiners. I don’t think language will fix that problem short term, and long term can just as easily be solved by the existing unit of sats.
