  Tbh it bothers me that invaluable doesn’t mean “with no/little value”.

    “Inflammable” is synonymous with “flammable”.

    It does, it means no value, as in priceless.

      Not really, the term comes from a time that value equaled to price. The modern meaning of value is equivalent to importance though. No value means without importance, not without price, which is not equivalent to invaluable.
