In my mind, when introducing inertia,
one must mention that inertia is the resistance to a change in the state of
motion, not resistance to acceleration (because rotating objects are always
accelerating).
From this point of view, the moment of inertia is not "the" rotational inertia,but rather the rotational /analog/ of inertia i.e. the rotational /analog/ of
