  The filesystem does not share any culture with Native America and India.

    The term does derive from Gullivers Travels, where the big endians and the little endians were both to be found on an island in the Indian ocean. Of course, the real reason for the mistake is that phone spelling correction will convert endian to Indian.

      It felt wrong at the time but it’s been too long for me to remember the correct spelling.
