Calling Captain Kurk
From an LA Weekly essay on Star Trek movies:
Responding to complaints from critics and Trekkies alike about The Motion Picture's brainy tone and lavish cost, the producers mapped out a leaner sequel, in the process confronting the dilemma of how to make wham-bang sci-fi movies on a miniscule budget, with actors entering their fifties.
Yep, even in print we're now seeing "minuscule" spelled with a second I. I predict in fifty year "miniscule" will become the favored spelling.

The "mini" part of "miniscule" seems to make more sense.
as opposed to the minus cool
That spelling has bard marketing
bad marketing of course
don't criticise it unless you can do it
