Because of your presence as an often helpful contributor on this site, folks have brigaded around your low effort critique and tanked any chance that we'll have a productive conversation about the technology, or, heck, even the name at this point. You have an outweighed role in the direction conversations can go on this site, and playing ignorant to that while dragging feross and his work down every chance you get because of a naming choice is sad to watch.
Edit: it's also pretty clear feross received this feedback and decided to keep the name, so all you are doing is fanning flames: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26666142 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26666142
Edit2: I know you know the rules of the site, but really, read them, you seem to be breaking many of the top rules by riding on that high horse.
Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine. Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community.
Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
