Why do uninformed idiots call BMW cars Beemers and not the proper term BIMMER?

Bimmers are the cars
Beemers are the motorcycles
So I've been told.

Beemer = 2 wheels

Bimmer = 4 wheels

Why is this so hard for people to understand?

Maybe because some of us Beemer owners are also Airheads. (For the uninitiated, "airheads" refer to the aircooled Beemer boxer engines and also to the members of the corresponding owners' club Newsletter:"Airmail".)
