Not to put too fine a point on this interesting discussion (or "lecture
series", as it were), I add a little quote from R.D. Lillie,
Histopathologic Technic and Practical Histochemistry, 3rd ed, 1965: "The
word 'formal' [sic], sometimes erroneously used as a synonym, refers
properly to quite another substance, CH3O-Ch2-OCH3, dimethoxymethane."

It matters not  and I'm not even quite sure why I decided to take up the
fight -  what was the question???
