It's just funny because because they are going to de-carbonize with something that is pure carbon ;) In a way they could also say they are going to carbonize construction... But I get it of course, today if you say you're going to use crypto, it's not the same meaning as 10 years ago. In the Netherlands we have a "Nitrogen crisis", at first one is baffled as the air is 78% Nitrogen... Turns out they mean bound Nitrogen in the soil. I guess as a purist one could also be slightly annoyed when Corona virus is used to mean Covid19 or the actual virus (SARS-CoV-2).
I guess all these example could be the basis for nerdy in-jokes. For example, because of poor naming conventions we are in the situation where the solution to THE Corona virus could be A Corona virus. Just speculating (actually less lethal strains are perhaps the solution).
