That is how the climate sciences decided to differentiate between them, ass it allows a simple clarification between the to, though not 100% technically correct. It's not quite the proper definition though. But then, what else can one expect from a science that is in it's infancy, and mostly funded to deceive?
Oh... it is climate science that decided what is short and what is longwave infrared radiation. Do you have any proof of this or are you just pulling more BS out of your backside?

No. What it shows is that infrared radiation coming from the sun is considered shortwave. And what is emitted from the Earth that cools the planet is considered longwave. All that is required to get this is knowing at about what frequency the cutoff is. And that cut off is right between the two peaks of radiation in the top graph.

What I have here is an OP from Jack Hayes where his first comment was just outright wrong. And it was wrong because the denialist pundit he was quoting was wrong. And then you and longview decided to make fools of yourselves by trying to back up Jack and Kenneth Richard's misinformation. And now all of you are completely unable to admit you were wrong.
