Reminds me of the “Futurama” episode (I’m sure some troll can come up with the full quote) where scientists had long ago changed the name of the planet Uranus to Urectum. Ages ago my sister heard a talking head on TV call the planet YOO-rah-nohs. Why, she asked, did he say it like that? Probably, I opined, so you don’t confuse it with an anatomy lesson.
