The ultimate medical plot twist! Before naming rare diseases after dead white guys in lab coats, doctors apparently just winged it. "You've got Jenkins-Bartholomew Syndrome" sounds way better than "That Thing Where Your Toes Fall Off." Imagine the power move of naming your own disease—"I'd like to call it 'Superior Intelligence Disorder' please." The medical journals would never recover. Next time your doctor looks confused, just suggest they name your mysterious condition after their ex. Science is all about innovation, right?
