Everyone ought to realize that "Wikipedia" data can be written by
ANYONE
** As are NG posts.
The difference being that Wikis are full of checkable references and are
subject to on-going correction.
The word prefix 'super' generally refers to something 'better' than
the word without that prefix.
** So this radio ham clot has no idea what the origin of the term is really
is ( although it has been posted) and is making the classic ****wit
BLUNDER of trying to de-cipher the meaning from the word alone.
Think also SUPERman.
** And supercilious.
