The change actually makes a lot of sense. If it’s a light reflecting off of a cloud or the atmosphere somehow, which is something that has been called a UFO before, then it’s not flying and it’s not an object.
And it also helps to distance from the “flying saucer” connotation. If UAPs eventually become equivalent to “aliens”, then they’ll be forced to switch the name again, because even if you believe aliens have come to Earth, it simply can’t always be an alien.
As much as I don’t get these Skibidi’s and their “toilets”, I appreciate that the way I talk today is no more “correct” than how Shakespeare spoke hundreds of years ago, nor how people will talk hundreds of years in the future!

I love seeing language evolve in real time.
