Hi. I'm currently in the process of learning 1st movement if Moonlight Sonata by this video and sheets provided with it: https://youtu.be/sbTVZMJ9Z2I
There's that part that goes right after a long descent in the middle of the piece. It starts with a B sharp and on the sheet it's written as a double-sided B with a sharp, eighth on the left and a half on the right side. Don't know much regarding music notation but it seems really confusing — why is it written that way? For some time I thought you're actually supposed to play both B and B# at the same time for some dissonance. But nope, it's just a B# for a half of measure. Wouldn't it be more logical to, let's say, write a triplet with a first note being silent and and this B# as a separate half-note?

- Why do chord inversions keep the same name when the note is no longer the lowest note? Why not name it for the note that becomes the “new” lowest note?
For example the C chord has C E G with C being the lowest note and therefore it is called a “C” ch
