How's that a false argument? It's reasonable to avoid jargon in communication where possible - if you want to communicate to a wider audience. In this case I don't think it adds much. Once you click through you get the details.
But the mods seem to agree with you, so I'm in the minority opinion it seems.
- battery_cowboy 7y ago"PET" isn't jargon, it's a designation/name, much like "relational database" or "Phoenix framework". It's a name and type of a plastic, and to replace it with "plastic" alone makes the headline wildly inaccurate, like if I said "this new medicine cures cancer in 90 percent of patients" but it was just about some rare cancer that only 100 people get a year and couldn't be applied to other cancers. Depolemerize is jargon, admittedly.
