Just because the EV-brigade gave it a fancy name doesn't mean they invented it. What you describe isn't regenerative braking by any stretch of the definition.

Just because the EV-brigade gave it a fancy name doesn't mean they invented it. What you describe isn't regenerative braking by any stretch of the definition. Just because one considers "regenerative" to by hype doesn't mean one gets to use the word incorrectly. I guess the flip side of "pedantic" is using a word incorrectly even when one knows it's being used incorrectly.
