Suppose it's because, for some inexplicable lack of reason, rotational inertia isn't (officially) called rotational inertia. Perhaps, so that if a new person asks a bunch of professors about rotational inertia, they can look confused, and say there is no such thing, and later on laugh together behind the new persons back, about how that stupid little new person didn't even know that it's called moment of inertia, not rotational inertia. From then on, all the professors can mock and play practical jokes on the new person, with the new person having no idea why. -(Cyp)
