If you're in STEM academia, it's quite common.

I'm not in STEM, i'm in ... STEM-adjacent humanities, and I hear it all the time. Read it all the time. My lecturers use it, other students use it, papers use it, I'm pretty sure I used it today ... is this a regional thing or am I just moving in extremely specific circles?

Im not sure, Im in a subset of Biology and Ive never seen it, probably heard it though. I’ll probably end up seeing it more as I continue my studies but I guess we’ll see🤷‍♂️
