Wow this is a fairly harsh reply to the parent. Their point was merely that LIDAR is already a known thing; you would say “Apple adopted the term GPS for their location device” either. Why would anyone need to “adopt” a term that’s industry standard?

I agree that it’s not as if the author claims that Apple invented the term, but asserting the parent lacks “basic reading comprehension skills” is a bit mean, don’t you think?

Mean? No, I don’t think so. Finish reading the article before jumping to make a comment that is contradicted by the article itself.

You are claiming that being verbally abusive in response to a correct claim is justifiable as long as the author eventually wrote something that may be itself derived from the same correct claim.

More concisely: you're way out of line here and doubling down is pushing you further over it
