As a note, rather than as a request for action: It's not really correct to say that sugar melts in hot water. It dissolves. Some languages may not make a clear distinction between these concepts, but English generally does. For what it's worth, sugar even dissolves in cold water.

Yes, you're right, of course.
I believe we should have changed it, even though it belongs to the Tanaka Corpus.
