Scientists saw the Greek alphabet just sitting there, minding its own business, and went "Free real estate!" From alpha particles to beta decay, delta variables to sigma bonds—we've hijacked every squiggly symbol possible. First-year physics students think they're signing up to learn about the universe, but surprise! It's actually a crash course in ancient Greek typography. Nothing says "I'm making this equation unnecessarily complicated" like throwing in a random φ when a perfectly good 'f' was available. The ultimate power move of academia: making undergrads learn a dead language just to calculate how fast a ball rolls down a hill.
