>>1068286>trying to lessen confusionBut he isn't. He's adding to the confusion, because 'flat bar road bike' is already taken by a completely different albeit niche category of bike. Namely road bike frames set up with flat bars. Pic related. He knows this, but because he's autistic he has unilaterally decided that it's """wrong""" and is using a language all of his own. He has even tried, because he is autistic, tried to argue that a hybrid bike doesn't mean 'hybrid bike' but 'hybrid' 'bike'. As in, a cyclocross is a hybrid because it shares aspects of an on road bike and an off road bike. He doesn't parse language the way a neurotypical does because, to reiterate, he is fucking autisticest!
It's like calling your dog a (barking) cat because it's like a cat in exactly every way except the ones that don't matter because you say so - and the sound the """cat""" makes. To everyone who is not autistic, cat and dog already mean different things, and you're not helping. You're only parading your mental illness.
