I’m a doctor and every time I write ophthalmologist I’m surprised at how many H’s there are and where they end up.

Phenolphthalein is a similar experience, as a chemist

So strange to surround a T with H's like that

Of you could just not worry about it in any language that spells words sensibly. It's fenolftalein where I live.

As if my brain will let me misspell stuff, ever

Bless your heart, chemistry made me despise our reality and how it works.

Oh you mean ENT? I refuse to acknowledge the existence of any other term for the specialty.
