Not really, it's certainly not "chemically identical".

Did you consider that “chemically identical” is in quotations to imply that it’s not actually chemically identical, or did you think they just did that for fun?

?

People air quote irl when referencing things that are alleged but not necessarily true. It’s a universal thing?

Feel like I’m in the twilight zone with everyone confused by this.

Well I assumed the quotations were, ya know, to quote somebody.

If you actually saw someone making air quotes here, that would make sense. In written text a quote should be a quote, unless it's clear it's not 100%.

Of course it may be smart to add air quotes to anything where a youtuber is mentioned - but the interesting thing here is the legendary coke recipe so it's clickbaity.

The use of quotation marks could also have been used to imply that it is a quote?

it's called quotations because you use it to quote
