It's too late, I've already depicted myself as the chad temperature regulator and you as the virgin temperature conformer

Hot take: I HATE when people reffer to "H+" as "protons".
I know that they're technically the same thing, but It still always manages to annoy me. When I imagine a proton, I think of the part of an atom, NOT the ion it IS. It doesn't even act as a proton in a water solution. The H+ joins an H2O molecule and forms oxonium so there is no reason to call it a proton. It just feels so misleading and it takes more effor to write. I think it would make sense in a physics textbook, but I find it so unnecessary in biology. Just call it an H+ pump not a stupid pr*ton pump. Am I crazy or does anyone else share my opinion?
