D2O _is_ water.

By convention, isotope-substituted compounds generally carry the same
common name in all forms (although there may be an additional name if
the form is important in some way, as with heavy water).

Yes, but the point is that its properties are not all identical to those
of ordinary water -- just as the "new CO2 molecule", although still
called "carbon dioxide", has some properties that differ from those of a
molecule that comprises only C-12 and O-16.

Understood. My point was only in regards to the terminology.

Venus should have more than it's fair share of carbonated water, along
with a healthy molecular binding twist of sulfur.
