"Current linguistics makes a distinction between proper nouns and proper names but this distinction is not universally observed and sometimes it is observed but not rigorously."
Unbelievable how dense people play sometimes. It was clear what I meant when I said word, and in fact, I did refer to a single word if you want to play that game: Mandelbrot.
"Maldebrot set" or whatever it said before wouldn't even give you the correct search results. It serves a purpose to correct this, whereas this is just grammatical bickering for no apparent reason other than "he started it". I pointed out an important mistake, you're just trying to find substance in an argument that holds as much water as a sieve.
