Using the district court's "java.lang.Math.max" example, Oracle explains that the developers could have called it any number of things, including "Math.maximum" or "Arith.larger." This was not a situation where Oracle was selecting among preordained names and phrases to create its packages. Which is amusing, because Sun almost certainly chose "max" in part for "compatibility" with the C standard library.
