You can’t use the word “computing”, it’s a gerund that represents an ongoing activity, it can’t be unitized into finite units. “Processing power” is not a noun, it’s a phrase.
Compute is not a boardroom term, it’s an engineering term. It’s used by professionals because it’s efficient, practical, and makes the most sense linguistically in the context it’s used. It may be inelegant, but it’s a function term for an ugly, unnatural thing, it’s not supposed to sound pretty.

It’s also not in the dictionary so it’s still bullshit, obnoxious, and honestly just sounds stupid.
It’s absolutely in the dictionary, it’s perfectly plain and inoffensive, and it sounds perfectly descriptive of what it is.
I tolerated the use of literally literally meaning figuratively but I draw the line at compute as a noun.
Sounds like a personal problem
Yeah, I opened the dialog with my personal feelings on the matter.
