Pyramidalized carbocations?

In line with my post from the other day about a flattened carbanion (https://www.reddit.com/r/OrganicChemistry/s/77lyABSpHb), I wanted to find an example of a pyramidalized carbocation to discuss. I could not find a good example. At least, I could not find an example where the electronic features of the substituents cause pyrimidalization like the CF3 groups caused flattening. There are probably examples like bridgehead carbocations that are pyramidalized. Can you think of other ways to force a pyramidalized carbocation? (Also be very careful with AI with these types of questions. It literally makes stuff up)

How do molecules manage to react when it seems they are way more likely to collide in the wrong orientation than the right one?

What is the size of H+? Is it the size of a proton. It seems like it should be bigger, but it has no electrons.

I see a good benzylic leaving group. Why don’t you see things like benzalkonium chlorides undergo SN2?

Is Spider-man’s webbing physically possible?

Could a material take up so little space so as not to affect his appearance and then be projected from his wrists expanding exponentially? Could said material weigh so little so as not to affect spider-man while also possessing the tensile strengths to hold so much mass? Wouldn’t such a material become a pain for normal humans to clean up. Is this material possible?

What’s with all of the misinformation about aspartame being bad for you? Isn’t it just a dipeptide? Isn’t the human body built to deal with this class of molecules?

In my neighborhood there’s a lot of obnoxiously loud sports cars. My question is, is all that energy going toward making all that racket wasted energy that could be used to actually make the car go faster?
