The best a broad civilian uprising could hope for in the US would be a drawn-out guerilla grinder like Vietnam or Afghanistan. Anybody who thinks it would be a one-way wipe (in either direction) is an idiot.
Not to mention that a dictatorship would be more than glad to support counter-revolutionaries, which would outnumber the left-leaning revolution by... A lot.
Written English has three different conventions for representing compound words: closed (milkshake), hyphenated (cold-blooded), and open (green bean).
When certain separate words commonly used together start to blend logically into one concept, it makes sense to define the new "word" separately (particularly when that concept diverges from the separate definitions).
To be further pedantic, milk also has a different specific heat which would overcorrect for the density difference by about the same amount.
The calorie is not an SI unit, it's a cgs unit, and it isn't coherent or order-of-ten with SI units.
Furthermore, I'm not aware of any market where you can buy energy in calories. Most will be in terms of Wh, mass, or volume, none of which would be coherent or order-of-ten with calories.
Except for food, I guess. But how much utility is there in knowing that you could almost pasteurize a liter of milk with a fun size snickers?
Not really. I stayed at the Venetian last year, and my my room didn't include the sphere view in either the features or as an upcharge. (The sphere is "part of" the Venetian, so they'd be the most likely to advertise rooms with a view.) Their room is quite a bit further than mine was. They may have paid for the strip view, but without specific advertising they probably would not be able to tell ahead of time if they'd have LOS on the sphere.
An electric blanket is one of the best ways to warm up when you're "chilled to the bone". Layer them between normal blankets to make the most of the heat and keep them clean, and you can get whole body heat for a tenth the cost of even a little space heater.
Something something something, fiduciary duty.
