humans just put certain expectations into the word.
... which is entirely the way words work to convey ideas. If a word is being used to mean something other than the audience understands it to mean, communication has failed.
By the common definition, it's not "intelligence". If some specialized definition is being used, then that needs to be established and generally agreed upon.
5 years: pay what it costs now
It doesn't cost anything to copyright something. You just automatically own the copyright to something you create.

Only a 2% yearly increase?!? Are you serious? I lived in an apartment for 8 years, and my ending rent was 70% higher than my starting rent. By your number, it should have ended up only about 15% higher.

It's eth, actually, not thorn.
I had thought that eth was used in Old English for the voiced "th" and thorn for the unvoiced "th", but Wikipedia says they were used interchangeably for both sounds.
You're right otherwise. Thorn was not available on printing presses because they were being made in countries that didn't use the letter, which is why the letter Y was used instead until "th" became more common.
