Why Is The Height Of Ethane Rotation Barrier Nerfed?

Ethane got hit with the nerf hammer! The rotation barrier dropped from 12 kJ/mol to a measly 8 kJ/mol. This is basically the molecular equivalent of your favorite character getting downgraded in a video game patch. The devs clearly thought those methyl groups were rotating too slowly and needed a mobility buff. Next update: watch them nerf cyclohexane's chair-boat interconversion because too many students were actually understanding it.

Why Would They Nerf The Sigma Symbol's Height?

The mathematical community is in shambles! The sigma symbol (Σ) just got hit with the nerf hammer. Game developers reduce character heights when they're too powerful, and apparently someone thought summation was getting out of hand. Now mathematicians have to calculate series with a vertically challenged symbol. Next update: integral signs will lose weight and limit arrows will be capped at 2cm. Statistics students everywhere are protesting: "How am I supposed to sum from i=1 to infinity when my sigma can barely reach i=10?"
