(Mekton Zeta) My title idea was lame
 
#9
Given that most everyone I've ever hear pronounce the word or its root used 'grav(insert schwa here)ty' or 'grav(schwa)tic' as a record of the living language it could just as easily be 'gravuty' 'gravety' 'gravoty' or for the eyeliner-and-candles crowd, 'gravyty' so while neologism may not be the precise word for the phenomenon I stand by what I said before. Note that I'm not saying it's technically correct, just that it is the term as commonly used and in this particular case a proper name for the component as found in the index.

...and here I am having that argument I meant to avoid.
