    Chemical engineer here, I remember when learning orgo that I thought the IUPAC names were hot shit and so formal and cool.

    As I got older and got exposure to industry it was a hard left turn. What do you mean “ethylene” is a better name for the olefin of ethane, vs ethene for the alkene? I mean seriously what kind of distinction is that?
