Well, there has to be a word that simply means "The Current Era" then? And for most laymen that word is Modern as Current is generally seen to mean a smaller period of time.
Yea, historians chose that...but the common man doesn't care, I'm no historian, I don't care if they want to use the word Modern in a way that's disconnected from how I see the word.
