Why does everyone assume 0-7 is much worse, dangerous, bad for you etc than 7-14? Why does the word "acidic" set their panties on fire?

Cause they're all basic bitches and acid will make them salty.

To an average person, an extremely reactive alkaline substance would also just be called an acid. It doesn't matter that it's scientifically incorrect terminology; to your typical pleb, if it's a liquid that makes a hole in the floor then it's an acid.

Because nobody connects anything to the other side. As this guy said, if something makes holes/eats matter very fast, you immideately think acid. You don't think whether it's acidic or alkaline or whatever. It's not important, because the term "acid" tells you "a dangerous substance", not "lower than 7 ph".

Not true, corrosive is the other word and it rather common.
