I was wondering the same but for Apache Beam. I don't think it's to get traffic. Just coincidence.

... or maybe they chose an English word to make it harder to find.

  using two English words as the name would already be an improvement for the common web-searcher... As an example, here is the name of two apps that do similar things: "Blue iris" and "motion".... let me know which one that you are able find more quickly.

    Don't like opinion or stressing too much? Relax

      I was 100% serious... I don't think that the word BEAM helps... And I probably need more stress, not less.
