The word "Shader" keeps bugging me. Like, I can imagine why it's called that way historically, but it's way more than just to put shades on stuff (or even manipulate single entities). Yet my head can't unlink that connection when I see the word, I immediately got the picture in my head of a plain 2000's 3D era rock that gets upgraded to a 2024's 3D era rock.

Is it just me who's bugged by that? Or is it perhaps due to English not being my native language? 🧐
