I hope some journalist popularizes "clopen" as a neologism to describe organizations that claim to be open and transparent but in practice are closed and opaque.

Or "clopen-source software", projects that claim to be open-source but vital pieces are proprietary.

Probably most people here don't know this (and probably not totally universal), but a "clopen" is what you call it when you have to work a morning shift the day after having worked an evening shift.

Idk if that was parent's ref, but clopen is a term used in topology
