Your point was that a chemical reaction, presumably gas creating, occurs besides the already established effect. The paper you linked just mentions that some dissolved compounds can lower the surface tension which can promote bubble forming. This is not a chemical reaction and the distinction is important.

It's already a feature

Oh wow I didn't know that. Is it common? I've never heard it ever outside of the context of American military time.

As far as I know, no one ever says "I sleep at 2100 hrs (twenty-one hundred hours)". We say "I sleep at 9 o'clock" or "at 21 o'clock"). Then of course change o'clock with your lagnuage's equivalent such as "uur" or "Uhr" in Dutch and German for example. Pm or am is almost always derived from context, and if it's not you can add "in the morning/afternoon/evening".

I've never heard of drinking chocolate either, and I'm only now realising that it's a noun instead of a verb in the meme. I only happen to know about Milo because I've got family living in Australia.

Milo is actually Australian funnily enough. It's like a powdered chocolate thing similar to nesquik, but I don't think it actually contains any chocolate.

Hate to burst your bubble, but the calcium inside your bones is not in a metallic form but as calciumphosphate. So no metal frame but one made of a salt I guess.

I haven't played Starfield but if it's like fallout 4 you'd need a perk to even open the minigame.

I don't really want to spoil too much, but try to invest the coins you get into powerups and try going for relics in the stages (follow green arrow in stages with !). The unlocks screen also has good pointers for what to do next.

Don't worry about dying quickly if you're only just started, it's all part of the game.

You basically already answered it yourself. The wings provide the lift needed to overcome gravity. The wings can provide this lift because the plane is moving through the air, which it does via the engines propelling it forward. At a certain velocity enough lift is generated to overcome gravity and the plane can take off.
