The irony of calling something "Young" when it's over 200 years old is peak physics humor. That wide-eyed cat is all of us in engineering class when we realize the "Young" modulus was developed by Thomas Young in the early 1800s. Nothing like measuring material stiffness with a concept older than electricity! Engineers still using this ancient formula while typing on smartphones is basically the scientific equivalent of writing emails on a typewriter. The elasticity of materials hasn't changed, but our ability to make memes about them certainly has!
