I wish science reporters would stop using MOND to stand in for all theories for which MOND is the low curvature limit. MOND itself is not covariant and has a lot of other really well known issues which make it obviously a non-starter and more sophisticated theories in the family of General Relativity reproduce MOND like behavior but are better behaved and more plausible.

At the very least the term Modified Gravity or MOG should be used instead of MOND to avoid a lot of pointless back and forth about MOND.
