That’s common knowledge (things most people know, like tying shoes), not common sense (said to justify bullshit not supported by evidence, like racist stereotypes). Now you learned a second thing!
I tend to learn someone everyone else knows like once a year because it just hasn’t come up before. Finally found out what it meant by low/medium/high heat from a youtube video that showed things cooking as examples of each temp and also explained how wide the ranges are for each type which is why they are so vague in the first place.
Just a couple years ago I learned the difference between chopped and diced despite having done it for years by just cutting it to whatever size my wife made as an example. Again, not as precise as I assumed like with the heat things.
