Change the past tense of 'smite' from 'smote' to 'smeet'

The Issue

It is common knowledge that the past tense of 'smite' is 'smote' or 'smitten'. It's the year 2019. This is too lame, too unoriginal. If aliens invaded Earth is this the language you would be proud to show them? Didn't think so. This is why we need to evolve. Adapt. Shun the use of 'smote' and 'smitten' and use the new, hip past tense 'SMEET'. The time is now.
