This!
The only similar thing I find even worse is AliExpress product descriptions that say "silica gel" instead of silicone gel.
For those who are curious, silica gel is what is in those "do not eat" packets that absorb moisture to keep your crackers and whatnot from going stale and soggy. Very different from silicone, which is a rubber-like polymer.
