        Hydroxic acid actually sounds worse and completely not like plain water at all. I’m going to start using that one…

          It’s not really accurate though because it’s not an acid. Something like hydrogen hydroxide might be better because it implies it’s a base without outright saying it. Though hydroxic acid does still sound worse.

          Does chemistry have a naming convention for something that should be there but isn’t? If so, you could add a bunch of scary sounding elements to it, like a chemical name for leadless lead water.
