I have come to hate this word "kinetic" through no fault of its own. So sick of hearing about kinetic attacks. Of course they are kinetic attacks. What are we going to do, bomb them with potential energy?

It's almost as bad as "lethality" -- another word that gets thrown around so often by the administration that people maybe don't realize they are bragging about killing.
I definitely hated it because Pete Hegseth kept using it because he clearly thought it made him sound like a bad ass or whatever.

Technically, it is potential energy until detonation... But agreed, it sounds dumb. Hegseth could cite Newton's Laws of Motion if his life depended on it or a kinetic variable from a kinematic.
