If someone is capable of giving you comfortability, do they have comfortabilityability?

I hear "comfortability" on a lot of bike tests and it drives me crazy. These are journalists in our sport using this term. I know it's on Youtube and podcasts but I also see it in typed media as well. I blame Keefer.

Why is handlebars plural?  My bike only has 1 handle bar.

Did you know it's incorrect to refer to a Goggle company? 

Goggle isn't a noun. (person, place, or thing)

100% is a goggles company.

Why is it a pair of pants? Should it just be pant? Does pants just refer to the leg sleeves?

Your questions invoke uncomfortability.
