I'm ignorant as to the difference between a "bimmer" and a "beemer" so
maybe you can explain it to me.  Why don't people just say BMW?  It's
not like that's a long acronym.
 

Arlen is a pseudointellectual hack who introduces irrelevant asides into a
discussion to parade why he thinks he's more knowledgable than his many
targets. Why else would anyone arbitrarily introduce Einstein into a
discussion besides an exercise in pseudointellectual pretense? Only
wackaloons do that.

 What's interesting is the Apple trolls like Hemidactylus, who know nothing
about anything, instantly assume that terms are for "pseudointellectuals".
 Notice that normal people (like badgolferman) simply ask why all BMW
aficionados use these specific terms, while the hoi polloi don't know them.

I would wager large that most BMW aficionados have never heard most of the terms you've used.

 Yet these Apple trolls, who, of course, don't know BMW terms & yet they
claim to own BMWs, call anyone who knows anything, a "pseudointellectual".
 Since badgolferman rides a Gold Wing (which Honda doesn't usually refer to
as a "Goldwing" but many people do), he knows the terms "ride" & "drive".

Honda doesn't, do they?

 If someone walks up to him saying "I know everything about Goldwings
because I drive one myself", badgolferman would know he is a poser.
 This is relevant because all th Apple trolls are posers.
They're all on Mount Stupid to the left of the 1st Dunning-Kruger quadrile.
 Which is why it was important to destroy the poser who claimed to be a
physicist and yet he didn't even realize gravity is not a force.
 Likewise with Alan Baker who claims to "teach racing" and yet Alan has no
idea whatsoever of what a catenary is - which is a common term for curves.

I know exactly what a catenary is and I also know that it is not a "common term for curves" in general, but rather a very specific term for the curve created by a rope (or chain) supported at both ends and pulled downward by gravity under it's own weight.
I also know that that it has never been mentioned as the curve a racing car follows when going through a corner in any of the numerous books I have read on the subject.
