    Really? Is it a relatively recent thing? My last US/European history class was over 15 years ago, so if it came up anytime I’m the last two decades, i wouldn’t have learned about it.

    From some cursory research, it started being a thing at least as of the early 2000s, and that’s about when i went to high school. So it could very well have not been popular enough yet to cover in school.

    Regardless, it’s not something I’ve come across. I wonder if the devs here are the same way.
