It’s not the first time someone has pointed out Luciferase here, and it’s not the first time someone has said that it’s just a coincidence because Lucifer is just a word that means light bringer / maker, linking to the etymology. Do you really believe that with all the words related to light available for use, choosing Lucifer is ‘just a coincidence’? There’s clearly something suspicious about it. And there’s also something suspicious about someone who sees the US Government patent Luciferase and thinks ‘everything is perfectly normal about that’.
That's like saying it's a coincidence that someone made a pie and called it "pie". It's not a "coincidence". It's literally what the word means.
Yes, it was probably named by an atheist chemist who was having a bit of a giggle. If the point you're making is that there are irreverent atheists in the world, I don't think that comes as a surprise to anyone. If you're hinting at some more nefarious scheme, you're going to need more of a story than just "hey look, they said lucifer!"
Need it for what? To make an impact on you personally? I don’t care. For those who can understand, no explanation is needed. For those who can’t, no explanation will suffice.
Oh you’ve been convinced that Lucifer doesn’t exist?
The point is the name is a translation of an adjective turned into a noun. Luciferase is literally "light making enzyme". It's not new.

I should have known! That Raphaël Dubois guy was in on it in 1890!
Well now you know.

True, but I think they enjoy calling it a name with lucifer in it because most scientists are godless and like to mock theories of good vs. evil.
