it’s like how every so often you have to tell someone referring to the final design for a software project as “the final solution” is probably not the best phrasing
An industry publicist once did a lecture to us and one of his slides was “the final solution to the emission question”. He did mention that it was his colleague who titled it lmao
That’s so much worse. Solution and question aren’t as natural a pairing as solution and problem or answer and question, and the only only example of them going together as an established phrase that comes to mind is the nazi one.
Did not see that coming. I just assumed like in engineering, its never the actual final. Thats how you end up with file names like project_rev2.6_final_ver6

Totally agree with you there. I’d like to believe he did next time they talked.
Probably, I assume they were just tired and wanted to sleep at that point though.

In my first practical chemistry course I referred to a container filled with gas as “gas chamber”, to make things worse I am german…

If the coworker exists, they must have hated him
Seemed to laugh about it
Wait I need to know why, I actually don’t get that
The Final Solution
