The only way to pop a hmm boner is to apply tunnel vision to only view the situation in the context of Physics, completely ignoring or dismissing linguistics which is applying a word to describe the effects by a laymen.
A star bends light
A blackhole captures light
A planet maybe wobbles
So applying a term sucks in is completely valid, linguistically.

urbandictionary comes along and another term is born, poking fun at these robotic patronizers
Captain Obviousthe space between his ears is not a vacuum, it’s this or that gaddaingit!Maybe chill with the ableism. You can call a removed a removed without bringing disability into it.
“This is the only context in which black holes even appear to suck matter in: as they absorb matter that undergoes gravitational infall due to the black hole’s mass”
I may not be the smartest of person but this article seems to contradict itself a little
