No, dude, it was you who put forward a Joe Rogan-tier pseudoscientific theory about the usage of the word "bug" with no evidence backing it whatsoever.

It needs to be called out, before people start misquoting it as fact, like how people ran with the 100% pseudoscientific glove-knitting theory for Roman dodecahedrons, which some people still quote on this board as if it had any scientific merit at all.






I suggest re-reading the original comment with fresh eyes. The author didn't put forth a theory or "made up a story" as you suggest. They asked a genuinely curious comment that was obvious as such.
