Note fig 1.4, the military convention for current flow!


Ho humm... it's current. Period. Current means charge flow. Charge flow
flow don't make sense.


Nah, there's current density, current crowding, current hogging,
displacement current, and all sorts of things that aren't just current.

Displacement current especially--that exists in a charge-free vacuum, so
"current" ain't just charge flow.
