Dear Colleagues. Can you help with the use of the word: 'digital-only children'? In the article against the logic of digital twins, I coined the term 'digital only children'. The editor said: I would recommend not using the term 'only children' to describe products. Here is a fragment of my paper: Previous research assumed that digital fashion items represent physical fashion as the digital twin (Wagner and Kabalska, 2022, Riedelsheimer et. al. 2020, Santos et al. 2021) and replace physical fashion to any extent (Zając and Jordan-Kulczyk 2022), which can lead to less emission or reducing overproduction (Derkach, 2021). Little is known about how the specific products in these initiatives change how consumers wear digital clothing on social media without assuming Digital Twin logic.

The paper makes ...contributions to the literature. First, it highlights that the particular products represent the physical items as the digital twins and others do not: the digital-only children. Consequently, practitioners and scholars should focus on digital-only children in launching products and studying them respectively. What's wrong with the word? What other word to use against the digital twin?
