Non-programmers ask why we always use 'i' and 'j' as loop variables. The answer is simple: it's not a choice, it's a sacred tradition passed down since FORTRAN days. Using 'x' or 'counter' instead would probably summon a daemon that corrupts your Git history. Some programmers claim they've tried using different variables and mysteriously found their keyboards reprogrammed to only type 'i++' the next day. The compiler doesn't care, but the programming gods do.
