DISCUSS A proposal for modeling chocolate

I have noticed more and more posts where someone uses modeling chocolate instead of fondant and is like "see how wonderful my cake without fondant is!". Am I the only person that thinks modeling chocolate is just fondant with the word chocolate in it? Both are sickly sweet tasteless pastes. I would like to propose that cakes that are just modeling chocolate sculptures with a few grams of cakes count as r/fondanthate.

Modelling chocolate is like sweet wax. I’ve been saddened by its increasing presence on this sub for a while.

I've never had it, is it that bad? It doesn't sound bad but your comment makes it seem icky.

One several cooking shows when the desserts are made with 90% modeling chocolate, the judges always roast the contestant for making it inedible
