I'm starting to feel like the most viable path out of the misuse of "ZK" is to just use the word "proof" to refer to a validity proof where you don't care about revealing the full information. And just favor "rollup" over "ZK rollup", and "EVM proof / prover / proving" over "ZK-EVM", where practical.

I use proof much more generically though to refer to either a snark, fault proof, or some bespoke proof like a merkle proof.

When everyone switches to binary fields, we can call them binary proofs. I also would prefer CS proofs, for "cryptographically secure". Also harkens back to Micali's "computationally sound proofs", the first real SNARK construction. Or AX proofs for "arithmetic execution" proofs. People like ZK but Z is zesty, but AX is sexy.

How about "poof" instead, to mean invisible proof? That works too. And is kinda fun. 😅

I don’t think there should be a viable or non viable path on the misuse of any word in the cases you mentioned / why wouldn’t the new wording be misused in this case?

Just take over all chains and put a chip in my shoulder so I can travel everywhere since exploitation is normal. And for those who read this just didn’t do their research and know what I’m talking about down to a specific thing, investment group and odd money there not to mention it’s not very humane
