They want to forcibly rename sats to bitcoins in the name of adoption as if we don’t already have more than a decade of history established using the word sats which came about organically.

Zap is more like tip in my book. The action of sending sats / bitcoin. To zap is to tip. I was zapped, I was tipped. We’re not going to change tip to cent.
At least there's a ready-to-go symbol. To get to a single undisputed Sats symbol used across Nostr, the exchanges like Coinbase, Kraken, POS terminals like Square, wallets like Strike—and unicode to go along—we could be talking 10 years.
And rawdogging it with letters alone (SATS) feels like Solana territory. You need a proper symbol to take a serious charge at the dollar, or yen, or whatever.
Problem is Sats needed an undisputed symbol winner yesterday, not in 10 years.
