    There’s a longish section about the physicist John Archibald Wheeler. I know people who worked with Wheeler. I’ve read Wheeler’s unpublished notebooks. Get John Wheeler’s name out of your mouth.

    The very first thing that section says is

    John Wheeler is a famous physicist who coined the term “black hole”.

    No, he didn’t.
