Surface‐enhanced infrared spectra show that interfacial cations interact with the electrode surface by altering the interfacial water structure, rather than the specific adsorption. In their Research Article on page 17718 ff. Y. Yan, B. Xu, and co‐workers demonstrate that interfacial water structure engineering could hold the key to improving the kinetics of the hydrogen oxidation and evolution reactions.
