This all feels very half baked.

Sats shouldn’t be called bitcoins. It’s just another way of confusing everyone. We’ve spent years telling people that bitcoins are divisible and now we have to tell them that’s not true anymore?

You still can call them sats. No one forces you to call it in anyway. You just see ₿, you dont see „bitcoins” or „sats” on text. You see „bitcoin” as for general meaning of this currency, but not unit

The paragraph on spoken language made me realise this

Satoshi would probably agree with symbol usage without units. As far as I recall he never used the plural version. And at one point even suggested moving the decimal point if and when it was needed.
